Plumbing – 1/2″ IPS -> Aerator

The screen is just one part of an aerator. There are a few different components to an aerator. It's best to get a new aerator instead of trying to track down all the individual pieces. It'll be worth the little bit of extra money. To make sure you get the right aerator the first time, I recommend that you bring the old one into the hardware store to match the threads.

Home Depot carries caps for most quick connects. Go to the store and look at the RP40301 (cap for round) or the RP60295 (cap for square quick connect). Both are made for Delta to convert faucets from "with sprayer" to "without sprayer". These Delta numbers will work at other stores, too. Hope this helps.
