Looking for 1/2" NPT 3-mode Replacement Kitchen Faucet Spray Head

[Paul Harbach]

Hi there!

Searching all over online looking for a 1/2" NPT 3-mode Replacement Kitchen Faucet Spray Head, but can't find any! All I find are G1/2 types with 13/16" dia. male plastic threads. Need 1/2" male plastic threads on the spray head to fit on the existing 1/2" female hose.

I don't know the manufacturer, so I'm outta luck there!

Difficult to find!

Another option i guess is to replace both hose and spray head, but would rather just replace the spray head and be done with it.

Any suggestions??

There are a lot of them. Moen, Delta, Pfister. In fact, the MAJORITY of those heads are 1/2" i.p.a.

I have exactly the same issue, no luck for the NPT 1/2". Do they think consumers when they came up with odd size? Did you find a solution? Thank you

A 1/2" NPT thread is used for pipe fittings and other fittings that rely on the taper threads for a seal. The spray heads with the 1/2" thread would be a NPS thread. These use a gasket to seal the head to the hose. The "G" is a designation of a parallel thread or straight thread. The spray heads you mention will fit. Just beware some manufacturers use propriatary sizing.
