Description
SMC AS1201F-M3-04 — AS series speed controller, elbow type with a one-touch fitting. Meter-out flow control with a scale window, so the setting is read as a number instead of counting turns. The M3 thread suits the small ports found on miniature cylinders and compact valves.

Features
- Scale window shows the flow setting as a value, which cuts setup time and removes the guesswork that causes setting mistakes
- Enlarged push-lock handle — set it, push to lock, and the setting holds against vibration
- Improved flow rate reproducibility, so the same reading gives the same cylinder speed
- Easier tube insertion and removal
- Electroless nickel plating is standard, not an option
Why the scale matters
On a machine with twenty cylinders, a controller without a scale has to be re-tuned by eye every time a unit is replaced. With a numbered window the setting is recorded once and restored in seconds, and the same value can be applied across identical stations.
Ordering
Order by the full code AS1201F-M3-04. The thread is part of the code — M3 and M5 bodies are not interchangeable — and the last digits give the tube O.D. Need another thread or tube size, or the in-line and universal styles in the same range? Send the code and quantity and we will quote it.
