About the Airtac PL L Connector PL602D-S
The AirTAC PL602D-S is a one-touch male elbow from the PL series, joining Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/4in PT male thread set at 90 degrees to the tube. Push the tube straight into the chuck and the stainless spring gasket and POM gripper ring lock it; press the release ring and it frees again. The elbow head swivels so the outlet can be clocked toward the tubing run instead of fighting it.
On the PL family the -S suffix makes the male STUD SUS304 stainless steel, while the elbow body stays PBT and the release button stays POM - it is not a solid stainless part, and AirTAC publishes no separate rating for it. Working pressure, vacuum and temperature are identical to the standard line: 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and -20 to +70 C. The D suffix gives this size a black body, and the 1/4in thread arrives from AirTAC with pipe sealant already applied, so no extra tape is needed on assembly.

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 PL L Connector PL602D-S Is Used
Packaging machine rotary arm
On a horizontal flow-wrapper or cartoner, the cylinder ports often face along the swing arm, leaving no room for a straight connector. This elbow turns the Dia 6 mm feed line 90 degrees and the stainless stud stands up to wash-down spray around the frame.
Electroplating line actuator feeds
Plating jigs and rinse-station lift cylinders run in acid mist. The SUS304 stud resists corrosion at the port where brass would pit, while the standard resin ratings cover the low-pressure lift circuit exactly.
Machine rebuild port adapters
When reworking an older press or jig fixture, the original brass stud is often green with corrosion. Swapping to a PL602D-S renews the thread interface at the port and lets the new Dia 6 mm tubing drop straight down off the cylinder, clear of guarding.
Is the Airtac PL L Connector PL602D-S the Right Part?
This sits mid-ladder on the PL 1/4in thread row. Step down to PL402-S for Dia 4 mm tube feeding light pilot circuits or thin pick-and-place lines; step up to PL802-S for Dia 8 mm tube carrying the volume for mid-size actuators. Every step up in bore trades fitting compactness for air capacity, so match the bore to the tubing you already run. If the port faces sideways and a straight male connector would kink the tube, this 90 degree shape is the answer; if the port is recessed and you need stand-off, the PLL extended male elbow in the same size is the better pick.
Two things to check before ordering: the thread is PT tapered, so it seals into a PT or compatible tapered port, and the tube OD must match exactly - a Dia 6 fitting will not hold 1/4in (6.35 mm) tubing, and no amount of tightening fixes that.
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 PL L Connector PL602D-S FAQ
It is a one-touch male elbow for Dia 6 mm tubing with a 1/4in PT male thread and a 90 degree outlet. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and the temperature range is -20 to +70 C. The male stud is SUS304 stainless steel; the body is black PBT with a POM release button. Applicable tubing is soft nylon or polyurethane.
No. On the PL family AirTAC applies -S to the male stud only, so the thread-facing stud is SUS304 while the elbow body remains PBT. On straight PC and POC connectors the -S makes the body itself stainless 304, but that does not carry over here, and the pressure and temperature ratings of this elbow are unchanged from the standard version.
