The AirTAC Airtac POC Round Thread Straight Connector POC1004 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 POC1004 is an AirTAC POC compact one-touch male connector, the shorter-bodied member of the male connector family. It joins Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing to a 1/2in PT male thread, and the compact body profile is what separates it from the standard PC connector on the same port. To make the joint you push the tube straight home into the chuck; the grip ring holds it under pressure, and pressing the release ring lets the tube pull free again.
This is the resin and brass fitting line, not the metal BP 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 1/2in thread arrives with sealant already applied, so it goes straight into a tapped PT port without extra tape. Body is PBT over a brass stud with a POM release button, aluminium-alloy guide, stainless spring gasket and NBR O-ring.

Screw the 1/2in PT stud into the main supply port of a press control manifold and run Dia 10 nylon tubing to the distribution block, using the compact body where guards leave little depth over the port.
On packaging machinery with a 1/2in ported blow-off header, the POC1004 carries Dia 10 polyurethane tubing down to the nozzle, tolerating the vibration the conveyor passes back into the line.
Feed rinse nozzles from a 1/2in tapped supply pipe in a wet plating shop; the resin and brass construction with NBR seal suits the misty environment inside the 0-70 C window.
At 1/2in thread, the POC row only offers Dia 10 and Dia 12 tube - there is no Dia 8 or smaller version, so the POC1004 is the smallest tube you can pair with this thread in the compact series. Stepping down to 3/8in thread opens the POC103 (Dia 10), and stepping up in tube size gives the POC1204. If the port is 1/8in or 1/4in, use the POC101 or POC102 instead; pushing a 1/2in fitting into a smaller tapped hole is the classic stripping mistake.
The Dia 10 bore matters here: with the largest thread on the compact body, this is the size to feed a main air leg or a manifold rather than a single small actuator. If the fitting has to pass through a sheet-metal panel instead of screwing into it, the PMF bulkhead connector in Dia 10 is the right shape, not this one.
Quick checklist
It is a compact one-touch male connector joining Dia 10 mm tube to a 1/2in 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. Tubing is soft nylon or polyurethane. These are the resin and brass profile figures - the metal BPC family is rated lower at 0.9 MPa but runs hotter at up to 150 C.
AirTAC's interface table lists the POC at 1/2in thread in Dia 10 and Dia 12 only. The chuck and seal are dimensioned to hold specific tube diameters exactly, so a 1/2in threaded compact connector simply is not made for Dia 8 or below. Use the POC103 at 3/8in thread if you need to stay with a smaller tube, or a PC-series connector, which offers a wider 1/2in ladder starting at Dia 6.
