The AirTAC Airtac PP Pipe Plug PP10 is a genuine plug for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The PP10 is an AirTAC PP series plug, the tube-to-tube cap of the resin one-touch range. It carries no thread at all: the Dia 10 mm end is a chuck that pushes straight into the open socket of any mating 10 mm fitting or bulkhead union, so a port that would otherwise vent to atmosphere is sealed the moment the plug clicks home.
It uses the resin spec profile, not the metal line: working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), vacuum to -750 mmHg, proof pressure 1.5 MPa and a temperature window of -20 to +70 C. The body is grey PBT-style resin as standard with a POM grip surface; a D suffix version in black is available if you want the cap to disappear against dark panelling.

During a fill-and-seal machine build, spare manifold outlets piped for a future second nozzle station are capped with a PP10 until the extra station is fitted, keeping the 10 mm distribution header pressurised and dry.
A PM bulkhead union set through the wall of a bottling line control cabinet leaves an unused Dia 10 socket on the operator side; the PP10 seals it so wash-down spray and syrup mist cannot enter the circuit.
When a gripper cylinder on a sheet-fed press is removed for seal replacement, its 10 mm supply tube is pulled and the end plugged with a PP10, letting the rest of the press run on reduced air without taping or venting the line.
Within the PP ladder your neighbours are PP8 below and PP12 above. Stepping to PP8 halves the sealed bore for small pilot lines and transport legs; PP12 covers the largest tube in the standard ladder when you need to blank a main header. There is no Dia 16 step above PP12 in this catalogue, so PP12 is the end of the line for blanking big headers.
Tube OD must match exactly on both sides: a PP10 will not seat in a Dia 8 or Dia 12 socket, and half-seating is worse than no plug because it can blow out under pressure. If you need a plug that lives on a panel wall rather than at the end of a hose, look at the PM bulkhead union instead, which screws through the panel and gives you a socket each side to cap or connect at will.
Quick checklist
The PP10 is a Dia 10 mm tube-side plug with no thread. Resin one-touch profile: 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. Standard body colour is grey; a D suffix gives black. It suits soft nylon or polyurethane circuits and mates only with Dia 10 mm sockets.
No. The plug's chuck must match the socket's tube size exactly, so a PP10 only seats in Dia 10 mm sockets. For other sizes order PP4, PP6, PP8 or PP12 to suit the fitting being capped, otherwise the seal will not form and the plug can eject under pressure.
