The AirTAC Airtac PHF Tandem Toggle Joint PHF1004D is a genuine universal female elbow for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The PHF1004D is an AirTAC universal female elbow: a one-touch fitting whose 1/2in PT female thread seats onto a male port stud while the swivel body takes Dia 10mm tubing at whatever angle the run needs. Push the soft nylon or polyurethane tube home and the internal chuck grips the OD, backed by an NBR O-ring seal; press the POM release ring and the tube is free again without tools. The female thread is supplied pre-coated with sealant, so it beds straight onto the port.
This is the resin and brass one-touch profile, not the metal BP line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum to -750 mmHg, proof pressure 1.5 MPa and a temperature range of -20 to +70 C. On the D variant the body and release button are moulded black; the mechanics are identical. The threaded section is PBT over a brass stud, with an aluminium-alloy guide inside the collar.

A Dia 10 feed to a welding robot's parallel gripper has to clear the dress pack. The PHF1004D threads onto the wrist port and swivels so the tube exits away from the loom, even after the 1/2in thread has been fully tightened.
Vacuum generators on case-erecting machines run under vacuum, and this fitting is rated to -750 mmHg. Use it to carry a Dia 10 supply line from the valve manifold to a venturi cartridge, with the elbow clocked to suit the mounting bracket.
The 1/2in port on a palletiser's clamp cylinder often faces an awkward angle behind guarding. A universal female elbow at the port drops the Dia 10 run straight down to the manifold without adding a second fitting to the circuit.
Within the 1/2in thread row of the PHF ladder this Dia 10 sits between Dia 8 (PHF1002D) and Dia 12 (PHF1204D). Stepping down trims the bore for short, low-demand branches; stepping up adds capacity for longer drops feeding larger cylinders. On the thread side, 1/2in is the largest port PHF offers; the only step down is 3/8in (PHF1003D), which also accepts Dia 10 tube, so the tube run stays the same and only the port changes.
One caution before ordering: the chuck grips a true 10mm OD and nothing else, so 3/8in tube (about 9.5mm) or 12mm line will neither seal nor hold. And if the tube has to pass through a panel wall rather than turn at a port, that is a job for the PMF bulkhead connector instead of this elbow.
Quick checklist
It is a Dia 10 tube, 1/2in PT female universal elbow from AirTAC's resin one-touch range. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa, vacuum goes to -750 mmHg, and the temperature range is -20 to +70 C. Use soft nylon or polyurethane tube with a true 10mm OD.
Yes. Tighten the female thread first, then set the elbow body through a wide range of angles to point the tube where the run needs it - the main advantage over a fixed PL male elbow. To release the tube, press the POM release ring; the chuck grips a matching 10mm OD only.
