About the Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH801D
The PH801D is an AirTAC PH universal male elbow in the resin one-touch range, joining Dia 8 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/8in PT male thread. Unlike a fixed PL elbow, the PH head pivots on the thread, so you can set the tube exit at any angle after the fitting is screwed home - useful when the port direction and the tube run disagree. The D suffix on the PH series makes the body itself black, not just the release button as on PC and POC.
Push the tube into the collet-style chuck until it bottoms; stainless spring gaskets and an NBR O-ring grip and seal it. Pressing the POM release ring frees the tube again for rework. This is the resin/brass profile: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and a temperature window of -20 to +70 C. The PBT-threaded stud arrives with sealant pre-applied, so no extra tape or dope is needed.

Fitting & Sealing Notes
- check Cut the tube square and clean before pushing it home, or the seal will leak.
- check Push until it stops, then pull back to check the chuck has gripped.
- check To release, press the collet ring fully in and pull the tube out.
- check Threaded parts arrive with sealant on the thread; M5 sizes use a sealing gasket.
- check Match the tube OD exactly - a 6 mm fitting will not hold 1/4" tube.
Where the Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH801D Is Used
Angle head on a pneumatic swing clamp
Swing clamps on drilling fixtures rarely leave the cylinder port pointing the way the tube needs to run. The PH801D head rotates to the required angle after the 1/8in stud is tightened, so the 8 mm drop to the clamp can route around the fixture plate instead of across it.
Black-finish wiring in a packaging cell guard
Inside the darkened guard of a cartoning machine, grey fittings stand out on painted frames. The black PH801D body blends into the machine colour, and the swivel head lets the 8 mm tube exit cleanly from a crowded manifold port.
Vacuum hold-down on a CNC router table
At -750 mmHg the resin PH801D sits comfortably inside vacuum-hold-down circuits that clamp sheet stock. The universal head orients the 8 mm suction line wherever the vacuum block port demands, without kinking the tube.
Is the Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH801D the Right Part?
On the 1/8in thread, PH is offered in Dia 4, 6 and 8 only, so Dia 8 is the top of this ladder. The step down is the PH601D with a Dia 6 bore - half the cross-sectional area, adequate for small actuators but a real flow restriction on longer 8 mm circuits. To go above Dia 8 you must change thread: PH 1/4in starts at Dia 6 and runs to Dia 10 as the PH1002.
Fit this elbow only where a swivelling head earns its keep - a straight PC connector is cheaper when the tube can leave along the port axis. The chuck accepts Dia 8 tube exactly; a nominal 5/16in or 7.5 mm hose will not seal and will blow off under pressure.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Tube outside diameter matches exactly
- ✓ Thread size and standard match the port
- ✓ Working pressure within 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2)
- ✓ Temperature within -20 to +70 °C
Airtac PH-1 Hex Head Toggle Joint PH801D FAQ
It is a Dia 8 mm one-touch universal male elbow with a 1/8in PT male thread. Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, operating temperature -20 to +70 C. Tubing is soft nylon or polyurethane; the body is black because of the D suffix, and the stud ships with thread sealant applied.
No. On the 1/8in thread, the PH ladder covers Dia 4, 6 and 8 only, and the chuck in this fitting is machined for Dia 8 alone - oversize tube will not seat and will leak or release. For Dia 10 mm tube you need the 1/4in-threaded PH1002. Conversely, if your circuit is Dia 6, the PH601D is the matching 1/8in part.
