  • Thread Size:

    • Male threads: Common sizes are 15/16″-27 or 13/16″-24.
    • Female threads: Common sizes are 55/64″-27 or 3/4″-27.
    • Ensure compatibility with faucet types.
  • Flow Rate:

    • Typical ranges: 0.5 GPM (gallons per minute) to 2.2 GPM.
    • Low-flow aerators (e.g., 0.5–1.0 GPM) are used for water conservation.
    • Standard aerators are around 1.5–2.2 GPM.
  • Material:

    • Plastic: Lightweight and cost-effective.
    • Metal (e.g., brass, stainless steel): Durable and corrosion-resistant.
    • Composite materials may also be used for specialized purposes.
  • Spray Pattern:

    • Laminar: Produces a clear, non-splashing stream (used in medical or lab settings).
    • Aerated: Mixes air for a soft, frothy flow.
    • Spray: Creates a wide, dispersed pattern for cleaning.
  • Dimensions:

    • Outer diameter and height vary depending on the model and application.
  • Pressure Range:

    • Designed for standard water pressures: 20–80 PSI (pounds per square inch)
