PC4-M6 fitting for 4mm PTFE tubing and M6-threaded parts

The Stainless Steel Pneumatic Push-In Fitting PC4-M6 is a connector made to securely attach 4mm outer diameter PTFE (Teflon) tubing to components with M6 threading. This type of fitting is commonly used in 3D printers and pneumatic systems where a secure tube connection and smooth tube path are important.

Key features of the stainless steel push-in fitting

  • Durable stainless steel construction: The stainless steel body offers strong resistance to corrosion and wear for long-lasting performance.
  • Quick push-in connection: The push-in mechanism allows fast installation and removal of PTFE tubing without sacrificing grip.
  • Straight-through tube path: An internal diameter of approximately 4.1-4.2mm lets the PTFE tube pass through smoothly, which helps minimize resistance and potential filament jams.

Where a PC4-M6 pneumatic fitting is commonly used

This pneumatic push-in fitting is particularly suitable for 3D printers with Bowden extruder systems. It is also a practical choice for other pneumatic setups that use 4mm PTFE tubing and M6-threaded connection points.

Why the straight-through design matters in Bowden setups

A smooth tube path helps maintain consistent filament movement through the PTFE tube. For Bowden-style 3D printers, that can help reduce friction at the fitting and support more reliable filament feeding.

FAQ

Frequently asked

What is a PC4-M6 fitting used for?

A PC4-M6 fitting is used to connect 4mm outer diameter PTFE tubing to a component with M6 threading. It is commonly used in Bowden-style 3D printers and pneumatic assemblies.

Does this fitting work with 4mm PTFE tube?

Yes. The fitting is designed for 4mm outer diameter PTFE (Teflon) tubing.

Is this PC4-M6 fitting compatible with Bowden extruder systems?

Yes. The fitting is particularly suitable for 3D printers using Bowden extruder systems.

What thread size does the fitting use?

The fitting uses M6 threading. The receiving component must have matching M6 threads for proper installation.

Why does the straight-through design matter on a Bowden tube fitting?

The straight-through design uses an internal diameter of approximately 4.1-4.2mm so the PTFE tube can pass through smoothly. This helps reduce resistance and potential filament jams.

Can the PTFE tube be removed after installation?

Yes. The push-in mechanism allows quick installation and removal of the PTFE tube while maintaining a secure grip.

Why choose a stainless steel pneumatic push-in fitting for a 3D printer?

Stainless steel provides strong resistance to corrosion and wear. That makes the fitting a durable option for long-term use in 3D printing and pneumatic setups.
