Fitting Function
Plugs into a compatible push-to-connect connection and provides two tube outlets. Match 1/8" tubing.
Important: This P-Series fitting is intended for industrial pneumatic and vacuum applications and is not approved for potable water service. Cut tubing squarely and push it fully into the fitting. To remove the tube, depress the grip collar; the Click-Click sound and feel indicate collar disengagement during tube release.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the connection sizes for PYJ1/8?+
The model specifies 1/8" nominal connection size(s). Check the plug-in stem and compatible receiving fitting, rather than assuming every connection accepts loose tubing.
How does the plug-in Y connect?+
The plug-in end inserts into a compatible push-to-connect fitting; the remaining 1/8" tubing connection(s) route the pneumatic line. It does not screw into a pipe-threaded port.
Can it be used with any push-to-connect fitting?+
Use a compatible receiving port sized for the plug-in stem, and check the tube outside diameter and retention method before pressurising the assembly.
Can it be used in an industrial vacuum circuit?+
The P-Series fitting family is described for industrial compressed-air and vacuum service. Confirm that the tubing, O-rings and pressure or vacuum conditions are appropriate for the complete system.
How do I release or reconnect the pneumatic tube?+
Isolate pressure or vacuum first. Depress the release collar fully and pull the tube straight out. The Click-Click feel and sound are associated with depressing the collar during tube release, not with inserting the tube. Cut the tube end square before reconnecting.
What material is the body made from?+
The fitting body is acetal engineering polymer (POM), with the separate gripping, sealing and any threaded components identified in the specification table.
Is it suitable for drinking water or potable-water installations?+
No potable-water approval is stated for this P-Series fitting. Use a product with documentation explicitly covering the required drinking-water standards rather than assuming pneumatic fittings are certified.
