The AirTAC Airtac PLL L-Type Extended Thread Connector PLL803D-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 PLL803D-S is an AirTAC PLL extended male elbow, a one-touch fitting that joins Dia 8 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 3/8 in PT female port at a fixed 90 degrees. The extended stud is the point of this prefix: it is longer than the stud on the standard PL male elbow, so a wrench has more engagement and the body stands clear of crowded ports. Push the 8 mm tube home and the internal chuck grips it; press the release ring and it frees. The D in the code gives this fitting a black body rather than the standard grey.
This is a resin-line part, not the metal BPC line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa, vacuum to -750 mmHg, proof pressure 1.5 MPa, temperature -20 to +70 C. On the -S suffix the specification is unchanged, and the construction is specific: the body stays PBT while the threaded stud is SUS304. That stainless stud is the corrosion-critical surface, because the male thread is where condensate and wash-down residue collect against the mating port. AirTAC ships threaded parts with sealant already on the thread.

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.

On a food or beverage conveyor that is hosed down each shift, a Dia 8 line feeding a 3/8 in cylinder port benefits from the SUS304 stud, which resists the crevice corrosion that attacks brass threads in wet, detergent-laden air.
Salt-laden air near a shoreline plant corrodes plated brass studs inside control enclosures and on exposed machine frames. A stainless-stud elbow at the Dia 8 drop line to a gripper or stopper cylinder keeps the threaded joint sound.
Where a press cylinder's 3/8 in port sits close to the guard wall or a proximity switch, the extended PLL stud lets the body angle the Dia 8 hose clear of obstructions while leaving wrench room to tighten the joint.
On the 3/8 in thread row of the PLL ladder, this SKU sits between PLL603 (Dia 6 tube) below and PLL1003 (Dia 10 tube) above. Stepping down to 6 mm suits compact actuators and lighter lines; stepping up to 10 mm moves more air to larger bores with the same 3/8 in port. Note the ladder rule: if you need a 1/2 in thread instead, PLL only offers it with Dia 10 or Dia 12 tube, so an 8 mm tube cannot follow you up that step. Tube OD must match exactly - a Dia 8 fitting will not seal on 1/4 in (6.35 mm) tube.
Choose the extended elbow shape when a standard PL elbow would bottom out against a nearby fitting, a manifold wall or a cylinder head, leaving no room for a wrench. If you need the fitting to pass through a panel, PMF bulkhead is the right shape instead.
Quick checklist
It is an AirTAC PLL extended male elbow for Dia 8 mm tubing with a 3/8 in PT 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. Body PBT in black (D suffix), threaded stud SUS304, POM release button and chuck, NBR O-ring. Thread comes pre-coated with sealant.
No. On this PLL-series variant only the threaded stud is SUS304; the elbow body remains PBT, exactly as on the standard part. The pressure, vacuum and temperature ratings are identical to the non-stainless PLL803D, so you are buying corrosion resistance at the thread, not a re-rated fitting.
