Commercial Undermount Sink is a stainless steel embedded sink designed for commercial kitchens. It adopts a single large-capacity sink design to meet high-intensity washing needs. The sink is made of high-quality stainless steel, which has excellent durability and corrosion resistance. Its streamlined design is not only beautiful, but also effectively reduces cleaning dead corners and facilitates maintenance. The edge of the sink has been finely processed to ensure seamless fit with the countertop after installation, which is both beautiful and practical. This design allows the sink to be easily embedded in various kitchen countertops, providing an efficient and hygienic washing solution for commercial kitchens.
1. High-quality stainless steel: Commercial Undermount Sink is made of 304 stainless steel, which contains 18% - 20% chromium and 8% - 10.5% nickel, giving it excellent corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance. After professional testing, after being immersed in a 30% salt water solution for 72 hours, there was no obvious corrosion on the surface of the sink, ensuring that there will be no rust or fading problems during long-term use, and the service life can reach 15 - 20 years. The tensile strength of 304 stainless steel reaches 520 - 760 MPa, which is much higher than that of ordinary steel. This allows the sink to withstand various external impacts in daily use and is not easy to deform or damage. For example, when washing large pots or handling heavy ingredients, the sink can still remain stable and durable. In addition, the elastic modulus of 304 stainless steel is 193,000 MPa, which means that the sink can quickly return to its original state after being subjected to external forces without permanent deformation. This high elasticity and high strength feature enables the sink to maintain good appearance and function in long-term frequent use, providing users with reliable use guarantee.
2. Large-capacity single-basin design: The single-basin size of the sink is usually 50 cm × 40 cm × 20 cm. This large-capacity design can meet the high-intensity washing needs of commercial kitchens. For example, a medium-sized restaurant kitchen needs to wash about 500 pieces of tableware every day. The large-capacity sink can accommodate more tableware and kitchen utensils at one time, reducing the number of washing times and water changes. Compared with ordinary double-basin sinks, the space utilization rate of the single-basin design is increased by about 30%, providing more operating space for the kitchen. In addition, the large-capacity design is also convenient for various kitchen tasks, such as washing large pots, soaking ingredients, etc., which improves the efficiency and flexibility of kitchen work.
3. Streamlined design reduces cleaning dead corners: The interior of the sink adopts a streamlined design, and the edges and corners are rounded with a radius of 3-5 mm. This design is not only beautiful, but also effectively reduces the dead corners of cleaning, making it difficult for dirt and food residues to accumulate. Compared with sinks with right-angle edges, when cleaning a streamlined sink, the cleaning tool can move more smoothly along the edges and corners, reducing the dead corners of cleaning and improving cleaning efficiency. For example, when wiping the edges and corners of the sink, the cleaning tool can easily pass the rounded corners, and there will be no blind spots left due to the sharp edges. In addition, the streamlined design also reduces the amount of detergent used, because dirt is not easy to accumulate on the edges and corners, and less detergent is needed to achieve a good cleaning effect. This design not only improves the user experience of the sink, but also brings great convenience to the user's daily cleaning work.
4. Fine edge treatment: The edge of the sink is finely polished, and the surface roughness reaches Ra0.4 - 0.8 microns, making the edge smooth and burr-free. This treatment not only improves the beauty of the sink, but also enhances its anti-fouling performance. Compared with unpolished sinks, the polished sink surface has a higher reflectivity and can better reflect light, making the sink look brighter and cleaner. In addition, polishing also reduces tiny dents and scratches on the surface of the sink, which are often hotbeds for dirt and bacteria. After actual testing, the surface bacteria growth rate of the polished sink is about 60% lower than that of the unpolished sink after a period of use, which provides users with a comprehensive use experience.
5. High-precision manufacturing process: The sink is manufactured using high-precision stamping and welding processes to ensure the dimensional accuracy and structural strength of each part. The stamping process uses advanced CNC stamping equipment, which can accurately control the strength and number of stamping to ensure that each part of the sink meets the design requirements. Compared with the traditional casting process, the surface of the sink produced by the stamping process is smoother, which reduces the workload of later grinding and polishing, while improving production efficiency and product quality. For example, at the edges and corners of the sink, the stamping process can ensure the dimensional accuracy and regular shape of these parts, avoiding the dimensional error and appearance inconsistency caused by manual grinding. In addition, the high-precision stamping process also improves the structural strength of the sink, so that the sink can maintain a good shape and performance when subjected to heavy objects or external force impact. After actual testing, the sink made by stamping technology can still maintain its original size and shape after bearing the pressure of 100 kg of heavy objects, without obvious deformation or damage.
6. Excellent sound insulation performance: The bottom of the sink is treated with special sound insulation materials, such as adding a high-density polyurethane foam layer with a thickness of 3-5 mm, which can effectively reduce the noise generated by the impact of water flow. After testing, the noise generated by the impact of water flow on the bottom of the sink can be reduced by 15-20 decibels, providing users with a quieter and more comfortable kitchen environment. The polyurethane foam layer has excellent sound absorption performance, and the tiny bubbles inside it can absorb and disperse the energy of sound waves, thereby reducing the propagation of noise. In actual use, when the water flow hits the bottom of the sink at a speed of 5-10 liters per second, the sound insulation layer can control the noise at a lower level, making the kitchen environment more peaceful. In addition, the use of sound insulation materials also has a certain thermal insulation performance, which can reduce the loss of water temperature and keep the hot water in the sink at a longer temperature. This is especially useful in winter, when users can reduce the use of hot water when washing dishes or ingredients, saving energy and improving comfort. Through actual comparative tests, after the sink using sound insulation material is filled with hot water, the water temperature drops about 30% slower than the sink without sound insulation material, which effectively extends the use time of hot water.
7. Good heat resistance: 304 stainless steel sinks have excellent heat resistance and can be used normally in a temperature range of -40℃ to 800℃. For example, users can directly put a hot pot into the sink for cleaning without worrying about the surface of the sink being deformed or damaged due to high temperature, ensuring the stability and reliability of the sink in various kitchen operations. The thermal expansion coefficient of stainless steel is 17.3×10⁻⁶/℃, which means that when the temperature changes, the size of the sink changes very little, and it will not deform or crack due to thermal expansion and contraction. After extreme temperature testing, the surface of the sink remains smooth without any signs of deformation or damage after repeated temperature changes from -20℃ to 200℃. In addition, stainless steel has good thermal conductivity, with a thermal conductivity of 16.2 W/m•K, which allows the sink to quickly disperse heat when it is in contact with a high-temperature object, avoiding damage caused by local overheating. This excellent heat resistance ensures that the sink can maintain good working condition in long-term use, even in the face of various extreme temperature conditions, and provide users with sufficient use experience.
8. Easy to install and maintain: Commercial Undermount Sink uses a standard installation interface, and the installation process is simple and quick. The general installation steps include: first fix the base of the sink to the preset hole on the countertop, then connect the water inlet pipe and the drain pipe, and finally perform a water flow test. The entire installation process can usually be completed within 30-45 minutes, without complex tools and professional skills, and users can install it by themselves. In addition, the sink is also very convenient to maintain. Its large-capacity single-basin design and streamlined edge treatment make cleaning easier. Most stains can be removed by simply wiping the surface of the sink with a damp cloth and rinsing it with clean water.
