DELTA FAUCET RP51345 Lahara Aerator, One Size

Product fit our 11 year old faucet perfectly. Although there are several types of Delta faucet aerators available at our Home Depot that were supposed to fit, none did. After spending a good while going through our paperwork from a whole house rebuild following hurricane Ike, we found the original owners manual and got the exact model number we needed. This proper aerator solved our problem instantly. Excellent value, superb fit, and proper water flow. Thanks

Mine aerator was a bit stripped and calcified in place. Was finally able to get it out. Aerator was a perfect fit.

The Delta RP51345 works great on my Delta Leland 2575LF-RMBPU bathroom faucets (I have 3). I spent a small fortune trying to find the right size wrench key for my Delta bathroom faucets. The Delta representative cannot help you if you do not know the exact model faucet. Finally, I went on the web and looked at every faucet with a 4 inch centercet and found my exact bathroom model. Then I looked at the printed drawing of each part of the faucet to get the aerator part number (it's listed on the specifications information for the faucet). It's sad that there is no other easy way to go about finding a wrench key to fit the aerator, but after some effort, I finally found that my aerator part was RP51345. Next I searched for this aerator part, which conveniently comes with the wrench key. It fits perfectly. It is much smaller than some of the other wrench keys I tried. One of the keys and aerators that I bought fits my Delta kitchen sink, so at least some of my money was well spent. At some point, I was so outraged with my faucet and not being able to find the correct wrench key, that I almost replaced our Delta faucets to get "regular" aerators that did not require a wrench key to remove. I'm not sure why the builder did not leave the wrench key under the sink when the house was built (only 3 years ago)... I may not have known what it was at the time, but I would have kept it in a safe place. I hope this information helps the consumer to know how to find the correct wrench key when you suddenly get lime buildup in your faucet and can't figure out how to remove the aerator.

Firstly, the tool that came to me was not blue. It was black and looks much different than the product picture on this page. However, it worked perfectly. The water running in my Delta faucet was at a trickle. This kit quickly took care of that. It was fixed in 5 minutes and the water is running normally.

I had to clean a bunch of scale off of my sink first, and every time I'd put this in the O- Ring would bunch up and hang out. I had to switch the O-Ring from the one I was removing to this one. They look identical, so I'm not sure why there was an issue, butt the new aerator is in place and works great. I forgot how much water flow I had in that sink.

The aerator itself seems fine. The key is very flimsy and that is what I needed. After one use, the teeth on the key are all chewed up and won’t be of any use again. Flimsy!!!

Like several others I have a Delta Lahara faucet for my bathroom sinks. I went to Menards and Lowes who both only had the larger (red) aerator key tool. I initially thought that this was the correct size (for my Delta kitchen sink it is) but unfortunately is too large for the smaller aerator on the bathroom sinks. I was noticing very low flow in the sink despite having fresh valve stems and seals so I figured it must be the aerator and it turns out that's exactly what it was. The result of years of hard water through it. Once the original aerator was out using the blue key I was able to clean up the threads and put in the new aerator which completely fixed the problem. Make sure you get the correct size aerator for your faucet model. I just wish they sold several aerators with the one key as I need several more but only the one key.

I will say it did work eventually but it took more effort because the supposed Delta aerator tool as shown on the listing was not the product sent to me. I chose this product because I wanted the bottom knob to ease turning the tool. The product sent to me had partial side knobs which did not allow me to push up on it to keep it attached correctly and turn it at the same time. Spent unnecessary time getting it to turn 1/2 rotation before it disconnected because I was unable to push and turn. I am not happy with this product and will purchase a true Delta tool from one of the big box stores for the same price.

with this took the work out from going to a big store

Exact replacement of original piece.

Excellent

Flowrate is ok, but not great. Fits my Delta Banting kitchen pull out faucet. But if I can get one with better flowrate, I will be returning this one. Comes with install/uninstall key which is a plus.

This is a cheap 25 cent aerator repackaged and advertised as an authentic Delta aerator, it is definitely not. It is not a flow restricting aerator either, likely a 2 gpm flow rate. For this price I was expecting an authentic Delta aerator with a 0.5 gpm flow rate.
