The AirTAC Airtac PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL6M5 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 AirTAC PLL6M5 is a resin extended male elbow from the PLL series: a one-touch push-in fitting that joins Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to an M5x0.8 male thread. The extended body puts a longer threaded neck between the swivel face and the elbow, so the tube exits at 90 degrees without fouling adjacent ports. Push the tube home and the stainless spring gasket inside the chuck grips it against the guide; press the POM release ring to free it.
This is the resin and brass spec profile, not the metal line: 0-1.0 MPa working pressure (0-10 kgf/cm2), -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C. The threaded body is PBT with a brass stud, and the O-ring is NBR. A detail worth knowing on this SKU: because the thread is M5, it arrives with a sealing gasket rather than the pre-applied thread sealant used on larger tapered threads, so no extra PTFE tape is needed on the male thread.

The extended neck of the PLL6M5 lets a Dia 6 mm tube clear a recessed cylinder port on a compact gripper or stopper cylinder, with the 90 degree exit running the line flat along the machine frame instead of into the guard wall.
Compact valve manifolds on packaging and assembly machines use M5x0.8 ports spaced closely together. The gasket-sealed thread and extended elbow keep neighbouring fittings from clashing while feeding 6 mm tube to each actuator branch.
On laboratory and diagnostic instruments with dense pneumatic layouts, the grey PBT PLL6M5 routes 6 mm tubing around tight corners from M5 ports to small pneumatic drives, at the 0-1.0 MPa and -20 to +70 C envelope those devices work in.
On the M5 ladder for PLL, only Dia 4 and Dia 6 tubes exist, so PLL6M5 is the largest M5 elbow AirTAC makes. Step down to PLL4M5 for 4 mm signal and pilot lines; step up in capacity by moving to the 1/8 inch thread, where PLL601 keeps the same 6 mm tube on a bigger, sealant-coated port. There is no 8 mm tube option on M5.
Match the thread to the port first: M5 is the small metric port found on compact valves, manifolds and mini cylinders, and the gasket-sealed male thread saves assembly time in those crowded locations. Choose the extended PLL shape over a plain PL when the port sits recessed behind a guard, a bracket or a coil housing. Whatever you order, the tube OD must match exactly - this chuck holds 6 mm tube and will not seal on 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) imperial tubing.
Quick checklist
The PLL6M5 is a PLL extended male elbow one-touch fitting for Dia 6 mm tube on an M5x0.8 PT-standard male thread. Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, operating temperature -20 to +70 C. It suits soft nylon or polyurethane tubing, has a POM release button and chuck, an aluminium-alloy guide, a stainless spring gasket, an NBR O-ring, a PBT threaded body and a brass stud, and ships in the standard grey finish.
No to both, in the ways that matter. The chuck is sized for exactly 6 mm metric tube; 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) tube will not seal in it, so match the OD exactly. On the thread side, the M5 size arrives with a sealing gasket rather than pre-applied sealant, which is AirTAC's standard practice on M5 and means no PTFE tape is required on the male thread. If your port is 1/8 inch PT instead, order PLL601, the same 6 mm tube size on that thread.
