Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink Guide

GAUGE
To better meet your preferences, budget
and lifestyle, Moen offers sinks in four
gauges of steel. Gauge is a measurement
of the thickness of material—the lower
the number, the thicker the steel. Cooks
and busy families may prefer heavier-
gauge sinks that will do a better job
of resisting dents that can come from
frequent use. Thicker steel will also
minimize vibration from a disposal and
prevent flexing or bowing when the faucet
is mounted directly to the sink.

BOWL CONFIGURATIONS
Choosing a single-bowl sink or a double-bowl sink is mostly a
matter of preference. However, there are advantages to each.
Single bowls will accommodate large items even though they may
be smaller in overall size. Double bowls allow you to accomplish
two tasks at once—soaking a pot in one bowl and rinsing dishes
in the other, for instance. Double bowls of equal size are the most
traditional option, but offset models combine the benefits of space
with the flexibility to multitask.
Because every home
is as unique as every
homeowner, Moen
offers more than
90 kitchen and bar/
prep sink models in
a wide range of sizes
and configurations.
Excellence never came
in so many forms.
Moen designs and
builds sinks just like
we design and build
faucets—with a focus
on exceptional quality
and craftsmanship.
Engineered to
provide worry-free
performance, a Moen
sink will serve as the
center of your kitchen
for years to come.
SoundSHIELD™
Standard on all Moen sinks,
SoundSHIELD treatment
reduces vibration and noise
caused by clanging dishes
and the drumming sounds
produced by running water.
A particularly beneficial
feature in open floor plans
where the kitchen is exposed
to adjacent living areas.
BOWL DEPTH
Moen offers a variety of bowl depths ranging from
5 inches in bar/prep sinks to 10-inch bowls in
1600 Professional Series and 1800
™
Series models.
Deep sink bowls minimize splashing, hold more
dishes to free up counter space and allow you to
soak larger pots and pans if you cook frequently.
Don’t forget: In undermount installations, add the
thickness of your countertop material to the depth
of the bowl to get a true overall measurement.
INSTALLATION APPLICATIONS
Drop-in designs rest on the surface of the countertop
and get secured by clips anchored to the underside of
the countertop. Installation is fast, easy and the perfect
choice for laminate countertops since the sink covers the
exposed edge of the hole cut into the counter.
Undermount sinks attach to the bottom of a stone or solid
surface countertop. Not only does this installation method
offer a more sophisticated look, it makes it easy to sweep
crumbs into the sink since there is no sink lip resting on
the surface of the counter.
APPLICATION

Drop In
You want a sink that
works in perfect
harmony with other
elements of your space.
From installation to
functionality, Moen
makes it easy to get the
performance that will
meet your standards
of perfection.
SECOND SINK
Adding a second sink is a smart idea for
kitchens with two cooks and households
that frequently entertain. Creating a
separate food prep station or beverage
center complete with running water
prevents congestion around your main sink
to make your room feel more spacious. It’s
a practical luxury you’ll appreciate having in
your kitchen.
