    take the aerator with you and the make and model of the faucet .
    however just exactly the part I was referring to ,,,albeit from lowes instead of the manufacture
    No. The adapter that came with each sprayer already did that, i.e., switch the location of the threads from inside to outside. The adapter Pfister sent me actually alters the SIZE of the part of the faucet that connects to the sprayer, i.e., it makes it LARGER. The problem all along was that the part of the faucet that connects to the sprayers was loose inside each sprayer's connection, and the supplied adapters, which changed the threading from male/female, did nothing to change the size.

      yes ,,,,,,,the Idea I was trying to convey just did not get interpreted by you the way I intended it to by my words .

      when I used the word "adapter" I was referring to a size adapter not a thread type adapter ,,,,,,which I thought would have been the obvious conclusion given the situation of the threads not even touching .

        I see the point you're making. You're right, if taking it in and speaking to someone at a store had been an option, it most likely would've worked out like you said. But since it wasn't an option, it played out as it did. I'm just glad it's resolved now!
