The AirTAC Airtac POC Round Thread Straight Connector POC1002 is a genuine male connector (compact) for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The AirTAC POC1002 is a compact one-touch male connector - the shortened-body version of the PC male connector, kept for installations where port spacing is tight. It terminates a Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube onto a 1/4in PT male thread. Push the tube fully home and the internal chuck plus stainless spring gasket lock it against the 1.5 MPa proof pressure; press the POM release ring and the tube slides straight back out.
This is a resin-line part, not the metal BPC family: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and a temperature window of -20 to +70 C. The threaded section is PBT on a brass stud with an NBR seal, and it arrives with thread sealant already applied so the 1/4in port seals on first assembly. Two facts worth knowing: on the POC series the D suffix only swaps the release button colour, so this grey standard is the same part underneath, and the shorter body buys real clearance between neighbouring fittings on a crowded manifold.

The shortened body lets the 1/4in thread seat on a wrist-mounted gripper block without the tube entry fouling adjacent sensors, and the chuck holds 10 mm line through repeated arm flex.
On a densely drilled solenoid manifold, the compact POC body clears the fittings either side where a standard PC connector would collide, and the pre-applied sealant seals the PT outlet first time.
Rated to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), the POC1002 feeds vacuum ejector and cup circuits handling carton blanks, with the 10 mm bore keeping velocity losses acceptable on short runs.
Sizing both ways on the tube ladder: one step down is POC802 (Dia 8 tube, same 1/4in thread) for lighter lines feeding small actuators; one step up is POC1202 (Dia 12 tube) when you want more bore behind the same port. On the thread side, POC1001 drops to 1/8in for shallow ports, and the interface ladder confirms Dia 10 is also offered with 3/8in and 1/2in threads, so you can upsize the port without leaving the POC family. Note that M5 is only available on Dia 4 and Dia 6 in this series, so a 10 mm compact connector always carries a tapered thread.
Tube OD must match exactly: this fitting accepts 10 mm tube only - 3/8in inch tube, at roughly 9.5 mm, will not seal in a Dia 10 chuck. If you later need the tube to turn through 90 degrees at the port, move to the PLF female elbow rather than angling the tube by hand.
Quick checklist
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; applicable tubing soft nylon or polyurethane at Dia 10 mm OD; male thread 1/4in PT. It is a resin/brass one-touch part with a PBT threaded body on a brass stud, POM release button and chuck, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring. Thread sealant is applied at the factory.
No tape is needed: the 1/4in PT thread leaves the factory with sealant already on it, so screw it in and it seals. Only M5 sizes in this catalogue use a sealing gasket instead. The fitting accepts exactly Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube - push it in until it bottoms, and it grips; no collet nut to tighten.
