Recommend a Filter/Regulator/Lubricator?

Specifically one that doesn't leak air. I can personally attest that this one indeed *****: https://www.amazon.com/Klutch-Air-Filter-Regulator-Lubricator-Combo-2in/dp/B01EGB6782/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1519091856&sr=8-4&keywords=Klutch+Air+Filter-Regulator-Lubricator+Combo&dpID=41lxK8xje4L&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

I don't really care about what it costs, and I know that after weeks a system will naturally bleed down, but not after minutes of being connected. So lame.

I’ve used Parker brand at work and have had no issues at all with them. You can purchase them individually or as pre-made units. I’ve used them both ways.

Norgren has always been good at work.

99% of the members here do not need a lubricator. Lubricators are to be installed on the input of a machine, or within the machine itself. What machine are you installing this on?

I don't use a lube set up, I just add oil to the tool. This will keep oil out of an airline that might go to a blast cabinet or paint use.

There will be one F/R/L per BENDPAK four post lift. I'm planning on two lifts for my garage. I'll probably mount the system on one of the legs, as for whatever reason the mfgr. is adamant about the use of these otherwise warranty is void.

Skip the inline lubricator.

Have had good luck with Wilkerson filters & regulators.

Alrighty then, the first time I remember a member has wanted one for the correct use. As said Parker, Wilkerson, or Norgren all good units. Good luck.

On edit; All the machines that I have worked on with an oiler on the input also have the exhaust ports plumbed to a coalescing filter to keep oil atomized air from being returned to the local atmosphere. Something to think about if you want to keep your shop clean and healthy.

I just installed a Bendpak HD9XL and a pair of RJ45LP bridge jacks. The lift installation manual does not mention the need for an FRL/Oiler and in fact the RJ45LP manual has a diagram that specifically calls for non-lubricated air. Anyone know when this changed? Was going to install an FRL, but don't want to lubricate the air if not required. Will just go with a filter and regulator otherwise.

I had one like that.
Threw it out, leaked like a screen door in a submarine.
