Elkay DRKADQ2517402LM Drop-in Sink Single Bowl Ada

Product Description

The ELKAY DRKADQ2517402LM is a single-bowl, drop-in stainless steel sink designed for classroom and light commercial installations where ADA compliance and durability are required. Built from 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel, it delivers a corrosion-resistant, repairable finish suited to high-use environments. The sink measures 25 inches by 17 inches overall with a bowl interior of 16 inches by 13.5 inches and a depth of 3.875 inches. A rear-center drain placement opens 3.5 inches to accept standard drain fittings and most garbage disposals where clearance allows. Sound Guard sound-dampening pads are bonded to the underside to reduce noise during use. Licensed plumbers and facility maintenance professionals are the primary installers.

This sink is intended for drop-in countertop installation in educational facilities, classrooms, prep rooms, and light commercial settings. The ADA-compliant bowl depth and overall dimensions make it suitable for accessible lavatory and utility applications. A minimum cabinet width of 30 inches is required for proper fit. The rear-center drain keeps the cabinet interior clear for plumbing rough-in and maximizes usable bowl space. While designed with classroom use in mind, the sink is also appropriate for residential kitchens, laundry rooms, and utility areas that require a compact, durable single-bowl unit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local IPC requirements. Shut off the water supply and verify drain rough-in location before cutting the countertop opening. The Quick-Clip hardware secures the sink from above, so full undercabinet access is not required during mounting, though access is needed to complete drain and supply connections. Apply a continuous bead of plumber-grade silicone sealant around the perimeter flange before setting the sink to ensure a watertight seal.
