About the Airtac PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL1003D
The PLL1003D is an AirTAC PLL extended male elbow from the resin one-touch range: a Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube turns 90 degrees into a pre-sealed 3/8 in PT male thread. The extended male nose projects further from the elbow body than the standard PL, so there is room for a wrench and for insulation or guard walls that would crowd a flush elbow.
This is the resin/brass profile, not the metal line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum to -750 mmHg, proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and a service window of -20 to +70 C. The D suffix makes the PBT body black rather than the standard grey, which matters on dark machine frames where grey fittings stand out. Push the tube home and the stainless spring gasket with the POM chuck grips it; press the release ring to free it. The 3/8 in thread arrives with sealant already applied, so it seals straight into a PT 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 PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL1003D Is Used
CNC fixture clamping
A Dia 10 line feeding a swing clamp on a machining centre fixture: the extended nose clears the riser block so the elbow can be torqued into the fixture port after the clamp is bolted down.
Robot end-of-arm plumbing
On a pick-and-place wrist where the cylinder port sits inside a shrouded gripper body, the extended male thread reaches past the shroud and the black PBT body blends into dark tooling.
Packaging machine diverters
Dia 10 polyurethane tubing routed to a diverter or pusher cylinder along a cartoning line, with the 90 degree turn taken at the port instead of adding a separate union elbow in the bundle.
Is the Airtac PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL1003D the Right Part?
On the 3/8 in thread of the PLL ladder, Dia 10 sits between PLL803 (Dia 8 tube) and PLL1203 (Dia 12 tube). Stepping down to Dia 8 eases routing through tighter cable channels and suits lighter actuators; stepping up to Dia 12 cuts restriction on longer runs feeding bigger bore cylinders. If your port is 1/2 in, the PLL ladder tops that thread out at Dia 10 and Dia 12 only, so PLL1004 is the like-for-like alternative.
The tube entry accepts exactly Dia 10 mm OD tubing - a 3/8 in tube will not seat in the chuck, and forcing it will not seal. Choose PLL over PL whenever the port sits behind a guard, bracket or coil that would block a wrench on a flush elbow; choose a PED male run tee instead if you need to branch a line off the same port.
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 PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL1003D FAQ
It is an AirTAC PLL extended male elbow joining a Dia 10 mm tube to a 3/8 in PT male thread, with a black PBT body. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), it holds vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa, and the temperature range is -20 to +70 C. Tubing must be soft nylon or polyurethane of exactly Dia 10 mm OD.
The male thread projects further from the elbow, giving wrench access and standoff where a guard, bracket or coil packs against the port. Functionally the one-touch action is the same: the tube pushes in and the chuck grips it, and pressing the release ring frees it. The 3/8 in thread comes with sealant pre-applied, so no extra tape is needed on the first install.
