Description
The LARSEN SUPPLY CO., INC. 09-1461NL is a chrome plated brass aerator-to-hose adapter designed for faucet and fixture service work. It converts a 55/64 inch x 27 male aerator thread to a 3/4 inch female garden hose thread, allowing a standard garden hose connection where an aerator seat is present. This fitting is lead free and meets California AB-1953, Vermont low-lead standards, and current federal low-lead requirements for potable water applications. Plumbers and fixture installers use this adapter when adapting faucet aerator ports to accept hose fittings without replacing the faucet body.
This adapter is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a faucet aerator thread must be converted to a garden hose connection. It is commonly installed on kitchen or utility sink faucets during service calls, fixture upgrades, or temporary water supply setups. The carded packaging makes it a practical item for counter or truck-stock. The 55/64 inch x 27 male thread is a standard aerator thread size found on a wide range of faucets from multiple manufacturers.

Installation Notes
