Airtac GL Lubricator GL400C10J
The AirTAC Airtac GL Lubricator GL400C10J is a genuine G-series air lubricator. It meters an oil mist into the compressed-air line so cylinders, valves and air tools downstream stay lubricated, with See datasheet ports and a pc oil bowl. A lubricator does not filter or regulate — it goes last in the line, after the filter and the regulator.

About the Airtac GL Lubricator GL400C10J
GL400C10J is a single-function air lubricator from the AirTAC G series: it adds a controlled oil mist to a compressed-air line so downstream cylinders, valves and air tools receive continuous lubrication. It performs no filtration and no pressure regulation - those jobs belong to separate GF and GR units upstream. This size 400 configuration carries PT3/8 ports (3/8 in PT thread, the standard thread), is supplied without a mounting bracket (the J code), has a polycarbonate bowl, a maximum working pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and an operating range of -5 to 70 C.
You are buying a genuine AirTAC part. The GL family is offered in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with ports from 1/8 to 1 in, in PT, G (BSPP) and NPT threads, with or without a mounting bracket. Because AirTAC publishes flow for this series as curves rather than a single rated figure, we confirm the exact flow and the full datasheet for your model on request.

| Model | Airtac GL Lubricator GL400C10J |

| Max. working pressure | 1.0 MPa (145 psi) |
| Temperature range | -5 to +70 °C (unfreeze) |
| Function | Oil-mist lubrication only |
Specifications follow the official AirTAC G-series air-preparation data. A lubricator has no drain, no regulating mechanism, no gauge and no filter element, so none of those figures apply. Oil grade, bowl capacity, flow curves, weight and outline dimensions are not published in our data set — ask us and we will confirm from the factory datasheet.
Model Code: Airtac GL Lubricator GL400C10J
| GL400 | G-series air lubricator, 400 body — sets the port range. |
|---|---|
| C1 | Port size See datasheet. This body offers 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| (blank) | Mounting bracket included. A bracket ships by default; J orders it without. |
| (blank) | PT thread. PT is the default; G is BSPP and T is NPT. |
The lubricator has the shortest code of the six G-series subfamilies — size, port, bracket, thread. There is no drain, pressure-type, gauge or filtering-grade position. Example: GL300-10JG is a 300 body, PT3/8", no bracket, G (BSPP) thread.
Size Class
- GL200PT1/8" - PT1/4"
- GL300PT1/4" - PT1/2"
- GL400PT3/8" - PT1/2"
- GL600PT3/4" - PT1"
A larger body carries a larger port and passes more air. AirTAC publishes flow only as curves, so size the body from your peak demand with headroom. The GL600 uses an aluminium-alloy oil bowl; the 200, 300 and 400 bodies use PC.

Where the Airtac GL Lubricator GL400C10J Is Used
Pneumatic press clutch circuits
Mechanical presses with air-fed clutch and counterbalance circuits need steady lubrication at the 3/8 in supply. Plumbed directly into the circuit without a bracket, this lubricator keeps those critical valves fed with oil mist.
CNC machine tool air circuits
Tool changers, clamps and chip conveyors on a machining centre run off the machine's internal 3/8 in air circuit. An inline lubricator keeps every actuator in the tool-change sequence working smoothly.
Fleet maintenance bays
Service shops run impact wrenches and tyre machines from 3/8 in reels all day. A lubricator at the bay keeps the shop-built plumbing tidy - no bracket needed when it hangs on the drop line itself.
Is the Airtac GL Lubricator GL400C10J the Right Lubricator?
Size 400 serves the upper-middle of the GL range: drop to 300 or 200 for smaller lines or step to 600 for a 1 in port. This code uses PT thread, the AirTAC standard; G (BSPP) and T (NPT) versions are catalogue options. The J code means no mounting bracket is supplied - ideal where the unit is plumbed inline or panel-mounted - and a bracket can be ordered separately if you change your layout. Flow is published as curves, not a single rating, so ask us to confirm sizing against your application before ordering.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (See datasheet here)
- ✓ Downstream equipment actually needs oil
- ✓ Thread PT, G (BSPP) or NPT
- ✓ Bracket needed, or order with J
- ✓ Bowl material: PC, or aluminium on GL600
- ✓ Fit after the filter and regulator
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Fit last in the line: filter, then regulator, then lubricator.
- check Mount vertically, bowl down, following the airflow arrow.
- check Keep inlet pressure within 0.05 - 1.0 MPa.
- check Use only oil approved for pneumatic lubricators.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Check the oil level regularly; top up before it runs dry.
The PC bowl must not be cleaned with solvents — wipe it with a dry cloth. The oil mist travels downstream, so if any branch of the line must stay oil-free, take that branch off before the lubricator. We will confirm the recommended oil grade from the factory datasheet on request.
Airtac GL Lubricator GL400C10J FAQ
AirTAC publishes flow for the GL series as curves rather than a single rated figure, so there is no single number to quote. Share your line pressure and expected air consumption and we will confirm the flow and the full datasheet for this model on request.
J indicates that no mounting bracket is supplied with this lubricator - it is intended for direct inline plumbing or panel fixing. If you later want wall or panel mounting, a bracket is available as an option when ordering.
