Elkay ELUH1316PDBG Undermount Kitchen Sink Stainless

Product Description

The ELKAY ELUH1316PDBG is a single bowl undermount kitchen sink constructed from 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel. The bowl measures 16 inches by 18.5 inches with a 7.875-inch depth, providing substantial basin capacity for washing, soaking, and stacking dishes. The Perfect Drain design eliminates the gap around the drain opening, allowing food particles and debris to rinse away cleanly rather than collecting at the drain edge. A rear center drain placement maximizes usable bowl space and keeps cabinet storage below unobstructed. Sound-deadening pads are bonded to the underside of the sink to absorb vibration and reduce noise during use. This sink is installed by licensed plumbers in residential and light commercial kitchen applications.

The ELUH1316PDBG is suited for residential kitchens, laundry rooms, and light commercial settings requiring a compact undermount sink with a rectangular bowl profile. A minimum cabinet size of 21 inches is required for installation. The sink ships with a bottom grid, part number LKWOBG1316SS, which sits inside the bowl to protect the stainless steel surface from scratches and dents during daily use. The grain finish on the bowl surface adds texture while remaining easy to clean under normal kitchen conditions.

Installation Notes

Undermount sink installation should be performed by a licensed plumber following local plumbing codes. Shut off water supply lines and disconnect existing drain connections before beginning work. The sink requires secure adhesive and mechanical fastening to the underside of the countertop; follow countertop manufacturer guidelines for substrate compatibility. Do not over-tighten drain hardware, as this can stress the stainless steel around the drain opening.
