The AirTAC Airtac PZB Cross Threaded Fitting PZB601D-S is a genuine threaded cross for push-in tube connection, rated 0 - 1.0 MPa (0 - 10 kgf/cm2) with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The PZB601D-S is an AirTAC PZB threaded cross: a single 1/8in PT male port that splits into three Dia 6 tube outlets at 90 degrees to each other. Push each soft nylon or polyurethane tube straight into its chuck and the gasket spring grips it; press the release ring and the tube slides free. No tools, no clamps, no re-tightening after vibration.
This belongs to the resin and brass one-touch profile: 0 to 1.0 MPa (0 to 10 kgf/cm2) working pressure, -750 mmHg (10 Torr) vacuum, 1.5 MPa proof pressure and -20 to +70 C. The trailing -S fits a SUS304 stainless stud into the threaded leg, so the port-side thread resists corrosion where a plain brass stud would dull or rust. The D in the code keeps the body black PBT. The -S does not re-rate anything: every pressure and temperature figure matches the standard PZB601D. The male thread arrives with sealant already applied, so it seals straight into a PT tapped 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.

A carton-erector vacuum head often runs three cup ports off one valve outlet. A threaded cross at the head feeds three Dia 6 suction lines from a single 1/8in port, and the SUS304 stud survives washdown between product changeovers.
Benchtop PCB blow-off stations split one regulator output to three narrow Dia 6 nozzles. The cross keeps the plumbing symmetric around the fixture, and the black body does not show against anodised framing.
Small retracting paddles along a conveyor guide rail can share one 1/8in tapped branch via a cross, each leg driving a Dia 6 line to a compact cylinder. The three-way split keeps stroke timing identical across paddles.
On a 1/8in thread the PZB ladder has only two rungs, Dia 6 and Dia 8. This SKU is the smaller one, so there is no Dia 4 below it - PZB is never made in Dia 4 and has no M5 option at all. Stepping up to PZB801 buys a Dia 8 bore with more area for longer tube runs; stepping to the 1/4in port version PZB602 unlocks Dia 10 as well. If you need a cross from a panel wall instead of a port, no bulkhead cross exists in this catalogue - a PMF bulkhead connector plus a PZ union cross is the workable route. Tube OD must match exactly: a Dia 6 fitting will not hold 1/4in (6.35 mm) tube, and forcing it leaks or blows off.
Quick checklist
Working pressure 0 to 1.0 MPa (0 to 10 kgf/cm2), negative pressure -750 mmHg (10 Torr), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, operating temperature -20 to +70 C. The fitting takes Dia 6 mm soft nylon or polyurethane tube in three outlets and has one 1/8in PT male thread. These figures are identical to the standard PZB601D; the -S only changes the stud to SUS304.
No. On the PZB family the -S option converts only the threaded stud to SUS304; the cross body stays PBT (black on this D-suffix part). That is the deliberate design: the polymer cross resists chemicals around the tube legs while the metal stud keeps a corrosion-resistant seal in the tapped port. Do not expect a stainless surface finish or any published certification - AirTAC specifies neither for this variant.
