About the Airtac PHW F Thread Swivel Tee Fitting PHW803
The PHW803 is AirTAC's double universal male elbow, a one-touch fitting that joins Dia 8 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a fixed 3/8in PT male port while letting the tube end articulate in two planes. Each swivel joint pivots independently, so the incoming tube and the threaded body can be oriented separately instead of being locked into one rigid angle. Push the tube home and the internal chuck grips it; press the release ring and it frees again.
This is the resin/brass one-touch profile: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa, vacuum to -750 mmHg, proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and a temperature range of -20 to +70 C. The body is PBT over a brass stud, with a POM release button and chuck, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring. The 3/8in thread arrives pre-coated with sealant, so no extra tape or paste is needed on the port.

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 PHW803 Is Used
Packaging machine spray manifold
On a carton-wrapping line, the double swivel lets the 3/8in PT body sit flush on the manifold while the Dia 8 tube bends around the guard rail to reach a spray nozzle actuator without kinking.
Robotic gripper wrist routing
At the wrist joint of a pick-and-place robot, the two-plane articulation of the PHW803 absorbs the wrist's rotation so the Dia 8 feed tube is not twisted every cycle, extending tubing life.
Valve test rig adaptors
On a pneumatic valve test bench, the swivelling male thread on a 3/8in PT fixture port lets technicians reposition the Dia 8 supply line between test setups without unscrewing the fitting.
Is the Airtac PHW F Thread Swivel Tee Fitting PHW803 the Right Part?
Within the PHW 3/8in PT ladder the neighbouring sizes are Dia 6 below and Dia 10 above. Stepping to 6 mm suits lighter pick-and-place lines where a smaller bore keeps the assembly compact; stepping to 10 mm moves more volume for the same pressure drop on longer runs or larger actuators. Note that PHW is not offered in M5 at all, so very small builds should move to the PH or PL series instead.
Choose a double universal elbow over a plain PL male elbow when the tube cannot approach the port from a single fixed angle - for example where the run must bend once to clear an obstruction and again to line up with the manifold. The tube OD must match exactly: a Dia 8 chuck will not seal 1/4in (6.35 mm) hose, even though the sizes look close.
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 PHW803 FAQ
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, temperature -20 to +70 C. The fitting takes Dia 8 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube on one end and has a 3/8in PT male thread on the other. Because both swivel joints are integral to the same resin body, none of these figures change with orientation.
A single swivel only reorients the tube in one plane. The PHW803 has two independent joints, so the tube run can clear one obstacle and still meet the port square, which matters on machinery where the port orientation is fixed by the manifold casting. It also carries no M5 option and its 3/8in thread starts at Dia 6 tube, so very small diameters belong on a different series.
