Fast, Compact Connections for 6mm Pneumatic Tubing

6mm pushfit fittings are designed for quick connection of compatible 6mm pneumatic tubing. They are commonly used in compressed-air control lines, machinery, automation, workshop systems and other installations where compact, easy-to-service tube connections are useful.

The current Tanair range includes standard 6mm couplers, elbows and tees, reducers for joining different tube sizes, threaded adaptors for BSP and metric ports, blanking plugs and speed-control valves for regulating pneumatic flow.

Joining Tube

Use straight couplers, elbows and tees for normal 6mm-to-6mm pneumatic tube connections.

Changing Tube Size

Use reducing straights and reducing tees where 6mm tubing must connect to 4mm, 8mm or 10mm tube.

Connecting Equipment

Use BSP or M5 threaded pushfit adaptors to connect 6mm tubing to compatible valves, cylinders, manifolds and equipment ports.

Choosing and Installing 6mm Pushfit Fittings

Confirm the Tube Outside Diameter

Pushfit fittings are selected by the outside diameter of the tube. Confirm that the tubing is 6mm OD unless you are intentionally using a reducing fitting.

Check the Tube Material

The products in this category are listed for compatible nylon and polyurethane tubing. Always check the individual product and tube specifications before installation.

Cut the Tube Cleanly and Squarely

A clean, square tube end helps the tube seat correctly inside the fitting. Damaged, crushed or angled tube ends can make sealing more difficult.

Match Threaded Ports Carefully

Where a pushfit includes a BSP or metric threaded connection, confirm the thread size and standard before ordering. Similar-looking threads are not automatically interchangeable.

Push the Tube Fully Home

Insert compatible tubing fully into the pushfit body so it passes the internal gripping and sealing components.

Isolate Before Making Changes

Compressed-air and pneumatic systems should be isolated and depressurised before fittings or tubing are removed, replaced or reconfigured.

Not sure what you need? Call 0121 753 3330 with the tube size, thread size and application. Clear photographs of the existing fitting or equipment port can also help with identification.

Common Uses for 6mm Pushfit Fittings

6mm Pushfit Fittings FAQs

What size tubing fits a 6mm pushfit fitting?

A standard 6mm pushfit connection is designed around compatible 6mm outside-diameter tubing. Reducing fittings in this range can also connect 6mm tubing to other specified tube sizes.

Can these fittings be used with nylon and polyurethane tubing?

The products listed in the live 6mm category are described as suitable for compatible nylon and polyurethane tubing. Check the individual product specification and system requirements before installation.

Do I need tools to connect pushfit tubing?

The push-in connection itself is designed for straightforward tube insertion, but the tube should be cut cleanly and squarely and any threaded connection should be installed correctly using appropriate tools and sealing methods.

Can I connect 6mm tubing to 8mm or 10mm tubing?

Yes, where the correct reducing pushfit is used. The live range includes 6mm-to-8mm and 6mm-to-10mm reducing straight fittings as well as a 6mm-to-8mm reducing tee.

What threaded connections are available in the 6mm range?

The current category includes 1/8" BSP, 1/4" BSP and M5 options alongside standard tube-to-tube pushfit fittings.

What does a pushfit speed-control valve do?

A speed-control valve provides adjustable airflow control within a compatible pneumatic circuit. The correct valve and flow arrangement should be selected for the application.

Can you help identify the fitting already fitted to my machine?

Yes. Call 0121 753 3330 or contact our team with the tube size, thread details and clear photographs of the existing connection.
