About the Airtac PHF Tandem Toggle Joint PHF6M5D-S
The AirTAC PHF is the universal female elbow of the resin one-touch range: it lands Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube onto an M5x0.8 female port, and the elbow head pivots so the fitting can sit square to the port even when the tube runs off at an angle. Push the tube firmly into the collar and the internal chuck grips it; press the release ring and the tube frees off for rework or rerouting.
This -S build keeps the PBT elbow body (black, the D colour suffix) but fits a SUS304 stainless stud, the stainless change AirTAC makes on the PHF family, chosen for damp or corrosive panels. Ratings stay on the standard resin profile: 0-1.0 MPa working, 1.5 MPa proof, -750 mmHg vacuum, -20 to +70 C, PT thread standard. One detail easy to miss: M5 sizes seal with a supplied gasket instead of the pre-applied thread sealant used on the larger threads.

POM release button and chuck, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket, NBR O-ring; body brass or PBT depending on the part. Stainless (-S): SUS304 in place of brass - a solid SUS304 body on the PC and POC straight connectors, and a PBT body with a SUS304 stud on the elbow, tee and branch shapes. Working pressure, proof pressure and temperature are unchanged from the standard version. AirTAC publishes flow as a characteristic curve rather than a single figure, so no L/min value is listed.

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 PHF Tandem Toggle Joint PHF6M5D-S Is Used
Benchtop analytical skid
Compact solenoid valves and sensors in lab gas benches often carry M5 ports; the swivelling female elbow lets the 6 mm PU tube drop away vertically without twisting the port.
Dense valve manifold panel
On a manifold face with staggered M5 outlets, the pivoting head lines each Dia 6 tube up with its run regardless of port clocking, so the loom leaves cleanly between rows.
Small pick-and-place gripper
Miniature grippers with M5 air ports sit close to moving jaws; the black PBT elbow takes the 6 mm tube off at a working angle and survives daily wipe-downs on the stainless stud.
Is the Airtac PHF Tandem Toggle Joint PHF6M5D-S the Right Part?
Step down one size and you get PHF4M5D-S, the same M5 port feeding a Dia 4 signal line. Dia 6 is the largest tube the PHF ladder offers on M5 at all, so going bigger means changing thread too: PHF801-S on the 1/8in port opens up Dia 8. Check the mating port really is M5x0.8 female with room for the gasket face, and remember the chuck grips exactly Dia 6 mm - a 1/4 inch tube (6.35 mm OD) will not seat in it. If your port is male rather than female, the PL male elbow is the shape to compare.
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 PHF Tandem Toggle Joint PHF6M5D-S FAQ
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), temperature -20 to +70 C. This SKU is a Dia 6 mm tube x M5x0.8 female universal elbow on the PT standard, with PBT body in black and a SUS304 stud.
No on both counts. The chuck grips exactly Dia 6 mm OD tubing, so 6.35 mm (1/4in) tube will neither seal nor hold, and the thread here is M5x0.8 female - this catalogue documents PT threads only, with no G or NPT variant published.
