Elkay DLR2222122 Drop-in Kitchen Sink 22 Inch Single Bowl

Product Description

The ELKAY DLR2222122 is a drop-in stainless steel kitchen sink built for residential kitchen installations where durability and ease of use are the priorities. Constructed from 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel, the single-bowl basin measures 19 inches in length and 16 inches in width, with external dimensions of 22 inches x 22 inches x 12.125 inches overall. The deep rectangular basin accommodates large cookware including stockpots and sheet pans. Sound-deadening pads are bonded to the underside to reduce vibration and noise during use. The finish resists scratching and maintains a high-shine appearance under normal service conditions. Licensed plumbers and skilled trades installers handle this type of drop-in unit.

This sink is suited for residential kitchen remodels and new construction where a self-rimming drop-in configuration is specified. The U-channel mounting design simplifies drop-in installation into standard countertop cutouts. Two pre-drilled faucet holes accommodate a widespread or two-handle faucet configuration. The 3.5-inch drain opening is compatible with standard garbage disposal flanges and basket strainers. Cabinet compatibility starts at 27 inches in width, making it a practical fit across a wide range of standard base cabinet sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber following local IPC requirements. Power down the garbage disposal and shut off supply valves before removing an existing sink. The drop-in rim requires a continuous bead of silicone sealant along the underside before setting into the countertop cutout. Do not overtighten mounting clips, as this can distort the rim seal on laminate or solid-surface countertops.
