Ikea tap aerator - replacement

Hello
I was doing some plumbing today and as a result there was very poor flow from the kitchen tap -an Ikea swan neck single tap mixer. You tube showed me I needed to check the aerator for blockage and showed me how to do it. I did it and there was debris which I cleared out. Unfortunately I broke the aerator. So the question du jour is can anyone advise where to source a replacement aerator. I have a feeling, like most things Ikea, they will probably end up being none standard!
Here's hoping....

Does the part you need have a 6 digit code in the product instructions (you should be able to find this on their website if it's a current product, or Google for it if not). I think the aerator for my Ikea tap does. If you know the code, you can try requesting a replacement on the Ikea website. It's under FAQs and there's a section for replacement parts. They normally send things quite quickly - items received within a week or two although I'm not sure about covid times! And it's always been free for me, whether I've broken or lost things.1

Thanks Rach_k.
I don't remember the name of the tap, don't have the instructions and can't spot it on the website. However all their mixer taps all have the same aerator part number so have ordered one of those.
Thanks again, Phil1
