The AirTAC Airtac PZB Cross Threaded Fitting PZB602 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 AirTAC PZB602 is a threaded cross in the PZB one-touch family: a single 1/4in PT male port that splits the supply four ways, each outlet gripping a Dia 6 mm tube. Push the tubing home and the stainless spring gasket and chuck clamp it; press the POM release ring and the tube frees for rework. No tools, no ferrules, no thread sealant on the tube side.
This is the resin/brass spec profile, so it is rated 0-1.0 MPa working pressure, 1.5 MPa proof, -750 mmHg vacuum and -20 to +70 C. The male thread arrives pre-coated with sealant, the body is PBT over a brass stud, and the O-ring is NBR. Note that PZB is AirTAC's most restricted cross: it starts at Dia 6, has no Dia 4 version and no M5 option, so a Dia 6 cross with a 1/4in thread is already the entry point of the range.

Mounted on the 1/4in outlet of a compact 5/2 valve manifold driving small grippers, PZB602 fans one supply into four Dia 6 lines without extra tees on the panel.
A single 1/4in bulkhead entry at the back of a PLC cabinet can branch to a plc-driven pick station, an air jet and two sensors, all in Dia 6 soft nylon.
On a microplate handling nest, the cross supplies three Dia 6 vacuum cups plus a shared blow-off jet from one regulated 1/4in drop, held to the -750 mmHg rating.
On the PZB ladder this is the smallest tube size - there is no Dia 4 cross to step down to. The next size up, PZB802, keeps the same 1/4in thread and lifts the bore to Dia 8, which is the usual move when four Dia 6 actuators load the circuit and flow feels starved. If 1/4in is larger than the port you have, PZB601 gives you the same Dia 6 cross on a 1/8in thread instead; 1/4in is the smallest thread that also carries the Dia 10 and Dia 12 options. Whichever way you go, tube OD must match the fitting exactly - a Dia 6 chuck will not seal on 1/4in (6.35 mm) imperial tube.
Quick checklist
Working pressure 0-1.0 MPa (0-10 kgf/cm2), proof pressure 1.5 MPa, vacuum to -750 mmHg (10 Torr), operating temperature -20 to +70 C. It joins four Dia 6 mm tubes to one 1/4in PT male thread. Body PBT on a brass stud, POM release button and chuck, aluminium alloy guide, stainless spring gasket, NBR seal, grey as standard.
No. PZB is the only cross in this catalogue and it deliberately skips both: the tube ladder starts at Dia 6 (no Dia 4 version) and the thread ladder starts at 1/8in (no M5). For a Dia 4 four-way split, use two PE404 union tees instead; for a small threaded port, step to PZB601 on 1/8in.
