About the Airtac PHW F Thread Swivel Tee Fitting PHW601D
The PHW601D is an AirTAC PHW double universal male elbow, a one-touch fitting that connects Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/8 in PT male port. Push the tube home and the stainless spring gasket plus the chuck grip it firmly; press the POM release ring and it frees again. What sets PHW apart from the single universal PH is the second swivel: the tube end articulates independently of the thread end, so the line can leave in a different plane than the port faces.
This part follows the resin and brass one-touch profile, not the metal BP line: 0-1.0 MPa working pressure, 1.5 MPa proof, -750 mmHg vacuum and -20 to +70 C. The D suffix turns the whole body black, not just the release button, which helps where grey fittings vanish against dark machine guards. The thread arrives with sealant pre-applied, so no tape is needed. One quirk of the series: the PHW ladder starts at 1/8 in and offers no M5, unlike its siblings PH and PHF.

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 PHW F Thread Swivel Tee Fitting PHW601D Is Used
Clamp cylinder on a press fixture
When the cylinder port faces sideways but the tube run must drop vertically past the tooling, the double universal elbow bends the Dia 6 PU line through two planes without kinking.
Valve manifold drop in a control panel
Screwed into a 1/8 in manifold outlet, the swivel aims the tube past neighbouring valves while the black body stands out clearly against grey wiring duct.
Pick-and-place gripper plumbing
Gripper ports sit at awkward angles and shift with the arm; a double universal elbow at each 1/8 in port lets Dia 6 nylon tube leave cleanly instead of taking a sharp side load.
Is the Airtac PHW F Thread Swivel Tee Fitting PHW601D the Right Part?
Step down to PHW401 (Dia 4 on 1/8 in) for thin pilot lines feeding small valves or sensors, or up to PHW801 (Dia 8 on 1/8 in) when the same port has to supply a hungrier actuator and you want the larger bore to cut restriction. If the port itself is bigger, the next thread rung for Dia 6 tube is PHW602 at 1/4 in PT. Match the tube exactly: this chuck grips Dia 6.00 mm and nothing else, so 1/4 in tubing at 6.35 mm will not seal, and forcing it only risks a blow-off.
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 PHW F Thread Swivel Tee Fitting PHW601D FAQ
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum capability -750 mmHg, proof pressure 1.5 MPa, operating temperature -20 to +70 C. The fitting takes Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube on a 1/8 in PT male thread, and the D suffix marks the black body and release button.
No. 1/4 in tubing measures 6.35 mm outside diameter, while the chuck in the PHW601D is made for exactly Dia 6.00 mm, so the seal will never seat properly. Use genuine Dia 6 mm metric tube, or if rewiring the run is an option, step the whole circuit up to Dia 8 tube with the PHW801.
