❓ Could It Be Something Else?

While the faucet weight is the #1 suspect, other possible sources include:

Dishwasher drain hose or pump

Older models may have internal components that degrade into small metal fragments

Garbage disposal

Worn impellers or internal parts could break apart — but usually produce larger shards

Water softener or filter system
