Smc Pneumatics KCH06-01S Push-to-connect Tube Fitting

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS KCH06-01S is a push-to-connect tube fitting connector designed for fast, tool-free tubing connections in pneumatic and fluid systems. It accepts a 6 mm outside diameter tube and features a 1/8 inch thread for straightforward integration into manifolds, valves, and equipment ports. Constructed from brass with polybutylene tube contact components, this fitting handles working pressures up to 145 psi. At just 0.01 pounds and 37.4 mm overall length, it is compact enough for tight installations. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and pneumatic system technicians routinely install this type of fitting during equipment assembly and maintenance.

This connector is suited for residential and light commercial pneumatic plumbing applications where a reliable push-in connection is needed on threaded ports. The 1/8 inch thread size is common on solenoid valves, regulators, cylinders, and manifold blocks used in compressed air systems. The push-to-connect design allows tubing to seat securely without ferrules or tools, reducing assembly time on the bench or in the field.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for pneumatic and fluid conveying systems using 6 mm outside diameter tubing with 1/8 inch threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or pneumatic system technicians. Depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any fittings. Insert tubing straight and fully into the fitting until it seats; to release tubing, depress the collet ring while pulling the tube free. Verify thread engagement and check for leaks before returning the system to service.
