About the Airtac PM Panel Mount Straight Coupling PM10D
The PM10D is an AirTAC PM bulkhead union in the black D-suffix finish, made to carry one Dia 10 mm tube through a panel or machine wall and meet a second Dia 10 mm tube on the other side. Both ends are one-touch: push the tubing home and the internal chuck grips it, press the release ring and it slides free. There is no external pipe port at all - the only thread on the part is the M20x1 locknut thread that clamps the body to the panel.
This is a resin/brass one-touch fitting, so the ratings are the resin set: 0-1.0 MPa working pressure, -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C. It runs on soft nylon or polyurethane tubing. The body is PBT with a brass stud, sealed by a stainless spring gasket and an NBR O-ring. On the PM series the D suffix colours the whole body black, not just the release button as on PC and POC straight connectors.

Fitting & Sealing Notes
- check Cut the tube square and clean before pushing it home, or the seal will leak.
- check Push until it stops, then pull back to check the chuck has gripped.
- check To release, press the collet ring fully in and pull the tube out.
- check Threaded parts arrive with sealant on the thread; M5 sizes use a sealing gasket.
- check Match the tube OD exactly - a 6 mm fitting will not hold 1/4" tube.
Where the Airtac PM Panel Mount Straight Coupling PM10D Is Used
Pneumatic control cabinet pass-through
Mount the PM10D through the back wall of a machine control cabinet so field-installed Dia 10 trunk lines connect to internal drop lines without opening cable glands or breaking the enclosure layout.
Automotive assembly cell air drops
Feed Dia 10 polyurethane lines to air-tool stations across a fixture wall in an assembly cell; the black body blends with dark machine framing and the push-fit ends let maintenance swap a damaged tube run in seconds.
Mobile equipment bulkhead lines
Carry a Dia 10 air line through the bulkhead of a truck-mounted or rail-mounted unit, keeping the joint accessible on the outside of the vehicle body where vibration checks and tube replacement are easiest.
Is the Airtac PM Panel Mount Straight Coupling PM10D the Right Part?
In the PM ladder the PM10D sits between the PM8D below it and the PM12D above it. Stepping down to Dia 8 shrinks the bore and the bulkhead locknut drops to M16x1; stepping up to Dia 12 raises the locknut to M22x1, so check the panel cut-out before you order either neighbour. The tube OD must match exactly in both directions: a Dia 10 chuck will not hold 12 mm or 3/8 inch tubing, even though those sizes look close.
Choose this bulkhead shape over a standard PE union tee or PV union elbow whenever two equal lines must cross a fixed barrier and stay serviceable from outside. Note that AirTAC publishes no G or NPT ordering code for this catalogue - the M20x1 locknut is the only thread, and no tightening torque figure is published either, so snug the locknut against the panel without gasket-crushing force.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Tube outside diameter matches exactly
- ✓ Thread size and standard match the port
- ✓ Working pressure within 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2)
- ✓ Temperature within -20 to +70 °C
Airtac PM Panel Mount Straight Coupling PM10D FAQ
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, temperature -20 to +70 C. It accepts Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube on both ends and mounts through the panel with an M20x1 bulkhead locknut thread. It is a resin/brass one-touch part with a PBT body, brass stud, stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring, finished black.
No. The chuck and O-ring are sized for exactly Dia 10 mm tubing on both ends; 3/8 inch tubing measures about 9.5 mm OD and will not seal, and 12 mm tube will not enter. If your lines are 12 mm, order the PM12D, whose locknut thread is M22x1 instead of M20x1 - plan the panel hole accordingly.
