3/8 NPT polycarbonate precision lubricator from Milton Industries is a drip style air line lubricator designed to provide oil to air tools that require oil for operation. The 3/8 inch national pipe thread connection ties directly into an air line, so oil is introduced right where tools need it during normal use. A 5 ounce polycarbonate bowl with metal bowl guard serves as the oil reservoir, giving a visible volume of oil on the line while protecting the bowl during day-to-day shop work. This lubricator delivers oil at an air flow as low as 2 SCFM, allowing light-demand air tools to receive lubrication without waiting for higher flow. A maximum pressure rating of 150 PSI supports typical shop air systems, while a maximum flow of 82 SCFM at 100 PSI serves higher demand tools on the same line.
This 3/8 inch NPT precision lubricator ties into air systems that use national pipe thread connections, placing it in series with existing filters and regulators in an airline assembly. The drip style mechanism works with air flow starting at 2 SCFM, so once the line is flowing, the lubricator begins metering oil toward connected tools. The sight glass dome gives a direct view of the drip rate while the system is under pressure, helping dial in flow for different air tool demands. The adjusting knob can be removed in order to prevent tampering, which maintains the chosen setting over time in multi-shift or multi-user shops. The ability to fill the 5 ounce polycarbonate bowl without shutting down line pressure supports continuous operation while maintaining lubrication supply.
This Milton Industries lubricator, manufacturer part 1029, fits into air line components as part of a Filter/Regulator/Lubricator assembly, so it serves the lubrication role after air has been filtered and regulated. The 3/8 inch NPT connection aligns with air lines and manifolds built around that thread size, allowing placement near tool drops or at a central distribution point. With a maximum pressure of 150 PSI, the lubricator operates within the range of many shop compressors, so it can function on main runs or branch circuits. The maximum 82 SCFM rating at 100 PSI supports air delivery to tools that draw higher volumes, such as larger air tools that require more flow while still receiving oil. The 5 ounce polycarbonate bowl capacity helps keep oil available during extended tool use, while the metal bowl guard provides added protection in busy air tool work areas.
The drip style precision lubricator allows precise settings for trouble free protection, so once a specific drip rate is established, the same amount of oil is delivered with each cycle of airflow. The sight glass dome allows observation for instant drip rate adjustment, giving direct feedback while tools are running, which supports fine-tuning lubrication without interrupting work. Delivering oil at an air flow as low as 2 SCFM means the lubricator begins working even with smaller tools or intermittent use, helping keep internal tool components supplied with oil during light-duty cycles. The operating temperature range of 40 degrees Fahrenheit to 125 degrees Fahrenheit matches common indoor shop conditions, supporting repeatable performance across typical seasonal changes. Being designed to provide oil to air tools that require oil for operation, the unit helps maintain tool function over time by keeping a steady oil presence in the air stream.
This 3/8 inch NPT precision lubricator installs in air line components as part of a Filter/Regulator/Lubricator setup, serving systems built around 3/8 inch national pipe thread connections.
The drip style mechanism allows precise settings for trouble free protection, so air tools receive a controlled oil supply each time air flows through the lubricator.
This Milton 1029 lubricator delivers oil at an air flow as low as 2 SCFM and supports a maximum of 82 SCFM at 100 PSI for higher demand tools.
The lubricator has a maximum pressure rating of 150 PSI, aligning with many shop compressor systems that operate within that range.
The sight glass dome allows observation for instant drip rate adjustment, giving a clear visual of oil flow while the air system is running.
This precision lubricator operates in a temperature range of 40 degrees Fahrenheit to 125 degrees Fahrenheit, matching typical indoor shop environments.
This 3/8 inch NPT polycarbonate precision lubricator from Milton Industries combines drip style control, a 5 ounce bowl, and a 150 PSI rating to support air tools that require oil for operation. The ability to deliver oil at flows starting at 2 SCFM and up to 82 SCFM at 100 PSI helps match a range of tool demands on the same line. For air systems built around 3/8 inch national pipe thread connections, this lubricator provides a defined lubrication point in a Filter/Regulator/Lubricator assembly so tools receive oil during normal compressed air use.
