The AirTAC Airtac PYB Y-Type Threaded Tee Fitting PYB601D is a genuine branch y for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The AirTAC PYB601D is a branch Y union from the resin one-touch range: a Dia 6 mm push-in socket splits the flow into two further Dia 6 mm push-in legs, with a 1/8 in PT male stud for the supply side. Push the tubing home and the internal chuck grips the OD; press the POM release ring and the tube frees off again. No tools, no ferrules, no re-making the joint when you re-route a branch.
This is the standard resin spec profile: 0-1.0 MPa working pressure, -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum capability, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C with soft nylon or polyurethane tubing. The 1/8 in stud ships with sealant already on the thread, so it seals straight into a PT port. Note that the D suffix on the PYB series changes the whole body colour to black, not just the release button - handy if you colour-code circuits on the machine.

On a small pick-and-place module, one 1/8 in PT drop from the valve manifold can feed two Dia 6 mm lines to the vacuum generator and the grip cylinder through a single Y instead of a tee plus extra studs.
Carton-forming machines often want two air nozzles clearing a flap from opposite sides. A PYB601D at the frame splits the Dia 6 mm supply into both nozzles with one push-in joint each.
In lab automation with soft nylon tubing, the black body of the PYB601D is easy to distinguish from grey water or reagent circuits when a Dia 6 mm air branch feeds a pair of small sampling actuators.
Both neighbours exist on this thread: step down to PYB401 for Dia 4 mm legs feeding small pilot lines or thin actuators, or up to PYB801 where the twin branches carry Dia 8 mm tubing to bigger cylinders or longer runs with less pressure drop. The tube bore is what sets the flow path here - keep it matched to the hungriest branch. On the thread side, PYB in 1/8 in accepts Dia 4, 6, 8 or 10 mm legs only; if you need Dia 12 mm branches you must move to a 1/4 in or larger PYB. And whatever you order, the tube OD must match the socket exactly - a Dia 6 mm fitting will not grip 1/4 in tube.
Quick checklist
It is a Dia 6 mm branch Y with a 1/8 in PT male stud from the resin one-touch line. Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure down to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, and an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 C with soft nylon or polyurethane tubing. The release button and chuck are POM, the guide is aluminium alloy, the spring gasket is stainless and the O-ring is NBR.
The two legs share one supply path, so how the flow splits depends on what each branch feeds, not on the fitting itself - AirTAC publishes flow for these fittings as a characteristic curve only, not a fixed figure. As a rule of thumb, keep the tube bore on both legs equal to this Dia 6 mm socket so neither actuator is starved, and check that your 1/8 in supply stud is not the bottleneck for two simultaneous demands.
