Abstract

An aerator for a plumbing fixture is provided, especially for a washstand, water basin or tub. The plumbing fixture includes a water outlet that leads to a forward outlet end in which an aerator that is penetrated by the water is pivotally mounted via a swiveling mechanism, particularly a joint, which is removably fixed. The pivotable aerator is mounted within an outer ring that is screwed into the outlet end.
