About the Airtac PY Y-Type Tee Connector PY10D
The PY10D is an AirTAC PY union Y from the resin one-touch fitting line: a three-leg tube-to-tube connector that takes Dia 10 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tubing on every leg and splits or merges the flow in a Y. Because it is a union, there is no threaded stud at all - each of the three legs is a plain one-touch socket, so no thread sealant is needed anywhere on this part.
Push each tube firmly into its socket and the internal chuck grips the OD to seal and hold it; press the POM release ring toward the body to free the tube again. The spec profile is the resin one: 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 trailing D means this fitting arrives with a black PBT body - and unlike the PC and POC connectors, where D only recolours the release button, on PY it changes the body itself.

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 PY Y-Type Tee Connector PY10D Is Used
Twin suction cups on a palletizer head
Split a single Dia 10 vacuum drop from the ejector to two cup stems, so both cups share one supply line without a tee blocking the arm.
Bottling conveyor actuator branch
Merge or split Dia 10 nylon feeds to the stop-and-lift cylinders on opposite sides of a filling lane where the pipes approach from diverging angles.
Dual blow-off on a CNC chip-clearing station
Y-split the Dia 10 polyurethane feed so one regulator port serves two air knives aimed at the machining table from either side.
Is the Airtac PY Y-Type Tee Connector PY10D the Right Part?
On the PY ladder this Dia 10 size sits between PY8 and PY12. Stepping down to PY8 narrows every leg to an 8 mm bore, which suits smaller-bore runs but throttles a 10 mm circuit; stepping up to PY12 gives a 12 mm bore for lines feeding larger cylinders or longer runs where you want the bore to dominate the capacity, since AirTAC publishes flow for these parts only as a characteristic curve tied to the tubing. Always match tube OD exactly: a Dia 10 socket will not seal or hold 3/8 in hose, which measures about 9.5 mm.
Choose a Y rather than a PE union tee when the branch is not at 90 degrees - the diverging legs let two drops converge from opposite directions without extra elbows. If the run instead has to pass through a panel or machine wall, a PM bulkhead union is the correct shape, not a PY.
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 PY Y-Type Tee Connector PY10D FAQ
The PY10D is a Dia 10 mm tube union Y with no thread - all three legs are one-touch sockets. 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. It takes soft nylon or polyurethane tubing and is part of the resin fitting line, with POM release rings and NBR O-rings at each grip.
No. On PY series fittings the D means the whole PBT body is moulded in black, not just the release button. That differs from the PC and POC male connectors, where D recolours only the button and the body stays grey - worth knowing if a machine builder has specified an all-black air-preparation look on the panel.
