Bsc Preferred LR13163 Drop-in Kitchen Sink Single Bowl

Product Description

The BSC PREFERRED LR13163 is a single-bowl drop-in kitchen sink constructed from 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel. It measures 13 inches by 16 inches by 7.625 inches overall, with a usable bowl interior of 10 inches by 10 inches by 7.5 inches. The flat bottom and straight sidewalls maximize basin volume, giving installers and end users a full-depth workspace for soaking, rinsing, and washing. Sound-deadening pads are applied to the underside to reduce vibration and operational noise. The U-channel mounting system speeds up drop-in installation compared to traditional clip-and-rail systems. This sink is manufactured in the USA.

The LR13163 is suited for residential kitchen installations where a compact yet full-depth single-bowl drop-in sink is required. It ships as a single unit and requires a minimum cabinet cutout sized for an 18-inch base cabinet. Three pre-drilled faucet holes are included, making it compatible with standard single-handle or widespread faucet configurations. The 3.5-inch drain opening accommodates standard kitchen basket strainer assemblies. This model fits applications where counter space is limited but full bowl depth is still a priority.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and disconnect existing drain and supply lines before removing any existing sink. Apply a continuous bead of silicone sealant around the underside of the sink rim before setting it into the cutout, then secure with the U-channel mounting hardware. Verify the drain opening alignment with the existing drain rough-in before finalizing the countertop cutout.
