The AirTAC Airtac PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL1202 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 PLL1202 is an AirTAC PLL extended male elbow, the largest tube size in the resin one-touch ladder. It joins Dia 12 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/4in PT male thread, turning the air path 90 degrees and setting the seal a long neck away from the elbow body so a spanner has clear room to wind the thread in.
It uses the standard resin and brass one-touch spec profile: 0 to 1.0 MPa (0 to 10 kgf/cm2) working pressure, -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C. Push the tube home and the POM chuck grips it; press the release ring and it frees. The thread arrives with sealant applied, so no tape is needed on the 1/4in end.

Dia 12 tubing feeds the large clamp and hold-down cylinders around a press bed. The PLL1202 elbow turns the feed 90 degrees into the cylinder port and its extended neck leaves the hex flat outside the tooling, so maintenance can tighten the joint without pulling the guard.
Carton diverters and rotary-table actuators on packaging lines use short stroke cylinders close to the frame. An extended male elbow at the port drops the Dia 12 supply line straight down the frame member, keeping the loop out of the product path.
Where a solenoid valve manifold carries a 1/4in outlet but the run to the actuator is plumbed in Dia 12 tubing for lower pressure drop, the PLL1202 bridges the two, and the pre-applied thread sealant makes the manifold connection a single wrench operation.
Dia 12 is the top of the PLL tube ladder at a 1/4in thread, so the only neighbour is down: the PLL1002 with Dia 10 tube carries the same 1/4in port with a narrower bore and a lighter-feeding line. There is no Dia 14. If you genuinely need Dia 12 tubing, PLL also makes it on 3/8in (PLL1203) and 1/2in (PLL1204) threads - step up there when the port is bigger, not here.
Check the port before ordering: the 1/4in male thread suits valve and cylinder ports tapped for PT at that size, and because it is a male thread it seals in the port, not on a nut. The tube side must be exactly Dia 12 OD - a 1/2in US tube will not seat in this chuck, and the fit is sized on millimetres, not nominal inches. Choose PLL over the straight PL elbow when you need the hex flats proud of tight guarding so a wrench can actually reach them.
Quick checklist
It is an extended male elbow for Dia 12 mm tubing with a 1/4in PT male thread. Working pressure is 0 to 1.0 MPa (0 to 10 kgf/cm2), it works down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum, proof pressure is 1.5 MPa, and the temperature range is -20 to +70 C. Standard colour is grey; the body and threaded parts are PBT with a brass stud, and the thread comes pre-coated with sealant.
Both are 90 degree elbows for Dia 12 tube on a 1/4in thread, but PLL adds an extended neck between the thread and the elbow body. That extra length does two jobs: it gives the hex flat clearance from the panel or guard so a spanner fits, and it keeps the sealing thread further out from crowded ports where a short elbow would foul adjacent fittings.
