Faucet Aerator thread size?

Post by Tree »

Been missing one of these since getting the boat almost ten years ago and I’m currently just going through some small details while the weather here is horrendous!

Does anyone know the thread size so I can buy a replacement. I can check it with a vernier and thread gauges but don’t have them to hand here right now.

TIA

Thanks but mine isn’t a sureflo - not even sure who made it. If it wasn’t for the difficult access I’d replace all of them anyway since they’re all looking tired now.

Have you got a picture of the fixture?

Lee,

Unfortunately I do not recognize that fixture and cannot help.
I was hoping that it was one of the various Scandvik products that Albin so frequently used.

It’s not a big deal. Just something I’d like to finish off. If it wasn’t such a faff changing them out I’d do that for whale faucets as I know they make one to match the shower one also.

Job to do list I think - only once I find time to fit the screen wash system!

OK, I'm not a plumber, but other than specialty faucets like Scandvik, aren't faucet aerators pretty standard? I've never had trouble going to a hardware store and just buying one, and it fit. If I were confronted with different sizes, I'd buy a handful, find the one that fit, and return the rest.

It's not that hard to change the faucet. Just pull out the refrigerator. Four screws and you're there. No need to remove the sink cabinet.
