The AirTAC Airtac PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL1002D is a genuine extended male elbow for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The PLL1002D is an AirTAC PLL male extended elbow, the resin one-touch fitting that joins Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/4 in PT male port at 90 degrees. The D suffix makes the PBT body black as well as the release button, so the fitting disappears against dark machine frames and anodised extrusion. Push the tube squarely into the chuck until it bottoms, and the stainless spring gasket and POM chuck grip it for a seal that holds straight through to -750 mmHg vacuum; press the release ring to free it again.
This belongs to the resin and brass one-touch profile, not the metal BP line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, temperature -20 to +70 C. The 1/4 in male thread arrives with sealant already applied, and because this is the extended PLL version the thread is longer than on a standard PL elbow, so it seats more deeply into thin-walled manifold ports and leaves room for a spanner behind close-fitting brackets.

A 90 degree elbow on the rear port of a Dia 40-63 mm ISO cylinder keeps the drop out of the guard line, and the extended 1/4 in thread reaches through the boss so the sealant-coated thread is fully engaged rather than hanging at the surface.
Rated to -750 mmHg, PLL1002D suits the suction side of small ejectors holding cartons or blister film on conveyor tooling, where the black body sits unobtrusively against dark vacuum plates and quick release speeds changeovers.
Steering Dia 10 mm supply lines down from the dress-pack into a 90 degree turn at the wrist or base casting, the longer male thread of the PLL body seats solidly in tapped ports on the robot base without a extra spacer or bulkhead plate.
On the PLL 1/4 in ladder you can step down to the PLL0802 for Dia 8 mm runs - lighter tubing, lower force actuators, easier routing through tight bundles - or up to the PLL1202 for Dia 12 mm lines feeding larger bore cylinders and longer circuits where pressure drop in the tube matters more than the fitting. Dia 10 mm is the middle rung and the common choice for mid-size actuation. Whichever you pick, the tube OD must match exactly: this socket is machined for 10 mm tube and will not seal on 3/8 in hose, which is close but not the same.
Choose PLL over PL when the port wall is thin, when a locknut or gauge will share the connection, or when the fitting needs to stand proud of a recessed boss. If the geometry needs to swivel to align instead, look at the PH universal elbow family rather than forcing this fixed 90 degree body.
Quick checklist
It is a Dia 10 mm one-touch extended male elbow with a 1/4 in PT male thread and a black body. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure goes to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa, and the operating temperature range is -20 to +70 C. It is designed for soft nylon or polyurethane tubing only.
No. The chuck and gasket are sized for a 10 mm outside diameter and a 3/8 in hose is roughly half a millimetre smaller, so the seal will not form and the tube can blow out under pressure. Measure the tube before ordering: if you are on true 3/8 in line, step to a different family, and if you are on 8 mm or 12 mm metric tube, order the PLL0802 or PLL1202 instead.
