About the Airtac PL L Connector PL804D
The PL804D is an AirTAC PL male elbow, a one-touch fitting that joins Dia 8 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/2 in PT male thread at a right angle. Push the tube into the chuck and it grips for a pressure-tight seal; press the release ring and the tube slides straight back out. The body arrives in black because the D suffix changes the body colour on the PL series, unlike on PC and POC where D only changes the release button.
This is the resin and brass one-touch profile, not the metal BP line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa, proof pressure 1.5 MPa, vacuum to -750 mmHg, and a temperature window of -20 to +70 C. The threaded stud is brass with sealant pre-applied at the factory, so the 1/2 in port seals on install without extra tape or compound.

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 PL804D Is Used
Cylinder ports inside tight machine guards
On a robotic pick-and-place cell, the cylinder port often sits millimetres from the guarding. A PL804D turns the Dia 8 supply line 90 degrees against the port face, keeping the hose inside the envelope where a straight 1/2 in connector would foul the cover.
Pneumatic press down-station plumbing
Mechanical presses and stamping auxiliaries commonly carry 1/2 in PT ports on the main air drop. The PL804D adapts that large thread down to a Dia 8 hose run feeding solenoid valves, and the pre-sealed brass stud means one wrench pass at installation.
Conveyor jet-blow nozzle take-offs
Bottle and carton conveyors use short air jets to stabilise products. Where the blow block presents a 1/2 in port sideways, this elbow drops a Dia 8 line vertically to the nozzle without an extra street elbow and without kinking the polyurethane tube.
Is the Airtac PL L Connector PL804D the Right Part?
Two ladders meet on this SKU. On the thread ladder, PL803 is the step down to 3/8 in PT on the same Dia 8 tube; 1/2 in is the largest thread AirTAC makes on the PL series, so there is nothing above it. On the tube ladder within 1/2 in, PL604 steps down to Dia 6 and PL1004 steps up to Dia 10. Stepping the bore changes what the run can feed; stepping the thread only changes the port it screws into. Pick the thread to match the port you have, not the one you wish you had.
The elbow shape earns its place where a straight connector would stand off the port and foul a guard, panel wall or adjacent hose run. Before ordering, confirm your tube is genuinely Dia 8 mm outside diameter: a one-touch chuck holds one size and one size only, so this fitting will not grip 5/16 in or Dia 10 tube no matter how firmly you push it in.
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 PL804D FAQ
It is a PL male elbow one-touch fitting for Dia 8 mm tubing with a 1/2 in PT male thread. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, negative pressure to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), and operating temperature -20 to +70 C. It runs on soft nylon or polyurethane tube, and the black D suffix changes the body colour on this series.
No. The 1/2 in brass stud arrives with sealant already applied to the thread, which is how AirTAC ships every threaded one-touch part in this catalogue; only the M5 sizes in the range use a sealing gasket instead. Screw it into the port, push the Dia 8 tube home until it bottoms, and pull lightly on the tube to confirm the chuck has locked before pressurising.
