The AirTAC Airtac PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL601D 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 PLL601D is an AirTAC PLL extended male elbow in the black (D) colour option. It joins Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/8in PT male thread, turning the airline through 90 degrees. Unlike the standard PL, the PLL carries a lengthened thread shank, so the fitting stands further off the port face - useful when a guard plate, bracket or cast boss would otherwise block the elbow body. The one-touch joint is simple: push the tube home and the stainless chuck grips it, press the release ring to free it.
This part belongs to the resin and brass one-touch profile: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and an operating temperature of -20 to +70 C. On the PC and POC straights a D suffix only changes the release button, but on the PLL the whole elbow body is moulded in black. The POM release button and chuck, aluminium guide, stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring stay as standard, and the 1/8in shank arrives with sealant already applied.

A swing cylinder sits behind the machine guard, so the elbow must clear the bracket face. The PLL601D's extended shank bridges the gap and the 90-degree turn keeps the 6 mm drop leg flat against the frame.
Small vacuum ejectors rated around 10 Torr feed from 6 mm tube. This fitting carries the full -750 mmHg (10 Torr) negative-pressure rating, and the push-release ring lets the bottle-change crew swap pickup lines without tools.
A short 6 mm run taps the machine's 1/8in port to clear chips off the spoilboard. The black body hides coolant mist staining, and the pre-sealed PT shank screws straight into the port without extra tape.
You are in the middle of the 1/8in ladder here: PLL401D steps down to Dia 4 tube for lighter runs such as sensor or pilot lines, while PLL801D steps up to Dia 8 for actuators that move more air. The same 1/8in shank is offered in 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm across the PLL range, so if your actuator later grows you can keep the port and just change the tube bore. If the port is a 1/4in one, order PLL602D instead of fitting a reducer. Whatever you choose, the tube OD must match the fitting exactly - a Dia 6 chuck cannot hold 1/4in (6.35 mm) hose. Where the line has to pass through a panel rather than turn at it, the PLM bulkhead male elbow is the shape you want, not this one.
Quick checklist
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), temperature -20 to +70 C. The fitting joins Dia 6 mm tubing to a 1/8in PT male thread and is the extended-shank elbow version of the PL series, finished in black.
It is a colour code, but where it lands depends on the series: on the PC and POC straight connectors a D only changes the release button to black, while on this PLL the entire elbow body is moulded black. Mechanically and dimensionally it is identical to the grey PLL601, with the same 1.0 MPa rating and pre-sealed 1/8in PT shank.
