The AirTAC Airtac PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL402-S 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 PLL402-S is an AirTAC PLL extended male elbow, a push-in fitting that joins Dia 4 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/4 in PT male port at 90 degrees. The extended thread neck stands the elbow a short distance off the mounting face, which leaves room for a wrench and keeps the tubing clear of the panel or guard it is mounted through. Installation is one-touch: push the tube fully home, the stainless spring gasket and chuck grip it, and pressing the release ring lets it out again.
The -S suffix means the male stud is SUS304 stainless steel; the elbow body itself stays PBT, exactly like the standard PLL402, and the ordering code before the suffix decodes the same way. Ratings are unchanged from the resin line: 0-1.0 MPa working pressure, -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C. Like every threaded part in this catalogue, the PT thread arrives with sealant already applied.

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.

A Dia 4mm pilot line stepped up to the 1/4in PT port of a pneumatic valve island; the extended neck keeps the tube bend away from the manifold face and the SUS304 stud resists corrosion in humid compressor rooms.
Feeding 4mm polyurethane tube to a 1/4in PT purge or actuation port inside a lab gas cabinet, where the stainless stud avoids rust streaks from condensation and the one-touch chuck lets technicians re-route lines without tools.
A right-angle connection at a compact packaging-machine cylinder where space above the port is tight; the extended thread gives a wrench purchase and points the thin Dia 4mm line down along the frame.
Dia 4 mm is the smallest tube size AirTAC makes on the PLL ladder, so there is no smaller step - if you need a 3.2 mm line you have moved to the PC or PL mini series instead. The next size up on the same 1/4 in thread is PLL612 for Dia 6 mm tube, which buys you a visibly larger bore for runs feeding bigger cylinders. Staying on Dia 4 but stepping the thread down gives PLL401 (1/8 in), useful on compact valve manifolds where a 1/4 in port would overhang the edge.
Tube OD must match exactly: a Dia 4 chuck will not seal on 1/4 in (6 mm) tube, and the sizes are close enough that the mistake is easy to make on the bench. If you actually need the fitting to pass through a panel wall rather than stand off it, the bulkhead shapes PM or PLM are the correct answer, not an extended elbow.
Quick checklist
It is a PLL extended male elbow for Dia 4 mm tubing with a 1/4 in PT male thread. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa and working temperature -20 to +70 C. It takes soft nylon or polyurethane tube. The -S version has a SUS304 stud; all of these figures are identical to the standard PLL402.
No. On the PLL family the push-in body remains PBT and only the male stud is SUS304 stainless. AirTAC does not re-rate the part either - pressure, vacuum and temperature figures carry over from the standard PLL402 unchanged, and no surface finish or certification figures are published for the stainless line.
