Water diffuser /aerator for tap

Edser

Hi All,

The water diffuser (aerator?) for my kitchen tap has broken. This is an insert which screws into the nozzle of the tap and streams the water (see the top one in this image ..



Does anybody know where I can buy new ones? I have tried local plumbing & hardware stores with no joy.

Hi Ed,

Do you know what make the tap is, most manufacturers supply parts as spares so if you knew brand I could do some digging for you.

Thanks Builditwell,

I couldn't see a munufacturers name on it but it looks fairly generic (it's about 23mm in diameter and it fits into my bathroom sink tap which looks exactly like this : http://www.remer.biz/inglese/prodotti_zoom.asp?cod=83)

I've also taken a pretty crappy picture, attached.

Hi Ed

I checked with my local supplier today but to no avail, I have gotten replacment washers ceramic discs, copper tails and even cartridge parts for various taps but am out of luck with aerators. Next option is i suppose a trip to a retailer and bring old one with you and maybe see if differfent manufacturers are the same, sorry i cant do more for you.
