ᐅ Single-lever mixer tap Dalskär with aerator from IKEA – what size is it?

Hello everyone,

I'm running out of ideas. I have had the Dalskär mixer tap for about a year. Now the aerator / strainer / flow regulator (there are even more names for it) got dirty and clogged with limescale. Usually, that’s not a big deal and can be cleaned quickly.

The aerator has a slot that you can unscrew with a coin. That’s the theory. In practice, though, the aerator falls apart into its individual parts when you try to unscrew it. A visit to my trusted furniture store didn’t help much either. The service there just told me that this part isn’t sold separately. They said I could buy these parts at any hardware store. However, I have checked in three different hardware stores but was unable to find this internal aerator.

I then contacted customer service and explained my problem. They only told me that I have a 10-year warranty and could simply remove the mixer tap and get a new one. Of course, everyone has quick-release fittings on their taps, right?

I found plenty of these aerators online, unfortunately in different sizes and lengths.

Does anyone know which size I need for the aerator? M18, M21, short or long, etc.?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,
the assembly instructions list the aerator with part number 124607. Try ordering the part using the spare parts form:
This should allow you to replace the part without any problems:

Great,

thanks for the tip. I will give it a try.

Have a nice weekend.
