About the Airtac POC Round Thread Straight Connector POC1002-S
The POC1002-S is AirTAC's compact one-touch male connector in the SUS304 stainless variant. It joins Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube to a 1/4in PT male thread. POC is the shorter-bodied companion to the PC series: the connection function is identical, but the overall length is trimmed so the part fits where a standard connector would foul a manifold wall or adjacent port. To connect, push the tube straight into the chuck until it bottoms out; the stainless spring gasket and gripper ring hold it against pressure and vacuum. Pressing the POM release button frees the collet so the tube withdraws cleanly.
On the POC series the -S suffix changes the body itself to Stainless steel 304, and AirTAC states the whole part is copper-free - the release button and chuck remain POM, the guide aluminium alloy, the spring gasket stainless and the O-ring NBR. Ratings are unchanged from the standard resin line: 0-1.0 MPa working pressure, -750 mmHg vacuum, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C. The male thread arrives with sealant already applied, so the fitting is ready to wind into the port.

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.

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 POC Round Thread Straight Connector POC1002-S Is Used
Food packaging washdown frame
Copper-free SUS304 body on a cartoner's vacuum-assist air drop resists caustic washdown chemistry that would pit a brass PC fitting, and the compact body clears the tight port pitch on the valve manifold.
Electroplating line control panel
On a plating bath hoist controller, the copper-free wetted path prevents copper ions migrating into acid vapour-laden air lines, while the 1/4in PT thread drops straight into the standard solenoid valve port.
Bottling conveyor air-knife circuit
A Dia 10 supply leg feeding an air-knife manifold on a rinse-table conveyor benefits from the short POC body, which fits under the low guard rail where a standard connector fouls the frame.
Is the Airtac POC Round Thread Straight Connector POC1002-S the Right Part?
On the 1/4in thread row of the POC ladder, this Dia 10 size sits between POC802 (Dia 8) below it and POC1202 (Dia 12) above it. Stepping down to 8 mm gains nothing on a 1/4in port but restricts flow through the smaller bore; stepping up to 12 mm is the largest tube this thread accepts and suits short, high-demand legs off a manifold. Match the tube, not the port: a Dia 10 fitting grips only genuine Dia 10 tubing, never 3/8in imperial tube, even though the difference looks small on a ruler.
Choose POC over PC when panel depth or port spacing is tight - the compact body clears neighbouring fittings where the standard connector will not. If you need a right-angle run instead of a straight one, the PLF female elbow or PHF universal female elbow covers 1/4in in Dia 10. AirTAC publishes PT as the thread standard for this catalogue; there is no G or NPT variant to order.
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 POC Round Thread Straight Connector POC1002-S FAQ
It is a compact one-touch male connector joining Dia 10 mm tube to a 1/4in PT male thread. Working pressure is 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa and temperature range -20 to +70 C. The -S version has a SUS304 stainless steel body and is copper-free; all other figures match the standard POC1002.
Yes. AirTAC's dimension tables are identical for the standard and -S parts, so it is a direct swap, and the pressure, vacuum and temperature ratings are the same. Only the body material changes to Stainless steel 304 (copper-free construction), while the release button and chuck stay POM and the O-ring stays NBR. Note that at the top of the temperature range the tubing itself, not the fitting, is usually the limiting factor.
