Anybody who knows anything about plumbing / taps please?

The plastic inserts in our bathroom sink taps, which I understand are called aerators or swirlers, have crumbled with age.

Does anybody know if they are available as spares please? I've seen something similar on fleabay but they are both too large a diameter and also are threaded which suggests the tap spout should be as well.

Thanks for any help

So that'll be a NO then

Try phoning somewhere like Plumb Center (why do they have to use the US spelling) and ask. Believe some are an interference fit.

OK Paul.

Thanks. There is one local to me

Hi Paul.
I think you may find that either wickes or B&Q may carry them if not try carvers
