Elkay LRAD1722602 Drop-in Single Bowl Sink 18-gauge

Product Description

The ELKAY LRAD1722602 is a drop-in single bowl kitchen sink built from 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel. It measures 17 inches by 22 inches with a bowl depth of 5.875 inches, providing a practical workspace for washing, rinsing, and stacking dishes. The rear center drain placement keeps the bowl floor clear and preserves cabinet space below. A U-channel mounting system positions clips inside the channel, reducing the amount of work required under the counter during installation. This sink is ADA compliant when correctly installed and is manufactured in the USA.

This sink is suited for residential kitchen installations where a single bowl drop-in unit is specified. The 2-hole configuration supports standard faucet and accessory setups without requiring additional drilling in most countertop applications. The minimum cabinet size required for installation is 21 inches, and the countertop cutout dimensions are 16.375 inches by 21.375 inches. Sound Guard sound-deadening pads are integrated into the underside of the bowl to reduce noise during daily use. Licensed plumbers or experienced remodeling contractors typically handle installation in new construction and retrofit projects alike.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified contractor in accordance with local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and disconnect existing drain and supply lines before beginning any sink swap or retrofit. Verify countertop material and thickness are suitable for drop-in mounting before cutting. Do not overtighten mounting clips, as this can distort the channel or damage the countertop surface.
