Smc Pneumatics KCH06-M5 Push-to-connect Fitting M5

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS KCH06-M5 is a push-to-connect tube fitting connector designed for pneumatic tubing applications requiring a secure, tool-free connection. The fitting accepts 6mm outside diameter tubing and threads into M5 x 0.8 ports, with a maximum working pressure rating of 145 psi. The body is constructed from brass with a polybutylene collet, making it suitable for compressed air lines, instrumentation circuits, and light fluid distribution systems. Licensed pneumatic technicians and industrial maintenance professionals install this fitting during equipment assembly and field service.

This fitting is used in pneumatic control systems, automation panels, and fluid-handling assemblies where space-saving M5 port connections are specified. The 6mm OD tube compatibility suits standard metric pneumatic tubing common in industrial and process control environments. Its compact form factor and push-in retention design make it a practical choice for tight panel installations and OEM equipment builds where repeatable, leak-free connections are required.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for pneumatic systems using M5 x 0.8 threaded ports and 6mm OD metric tubing.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified pneumatic technicians or industrial maintenance personnel. Depressurize and isolate the pneumatic circuit before removing or installing any fittings. Hand-tighten the threaded portion into the port and verify full tube insertion until the collet engages before returning the system to pressure. Do not exceed the rated working pressure of 145 psi.
