Cahaba CASS2318UMSB 23 In. Micro Radius Single Bowl Undermount Rectangle 16 Ga. Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink

No. Mounting hardware is not included with this sink, so plan on supplying undermount clips or brackets, stud adhesive, and silicone for the countertop fabricator. A basin rack is included.

It is an undermount sink only, with no deck or rim to sit on top of the counter. That means it needs a solid surface, quartz, granite, or butcher block top that can be cut and polished for an undermount reveal and can carry the sink's 28 pounds plus water. Laminate tops are not suitable unless the fabricator specifically builds them for undermount.

The drain sits at the rear of the bowl. A rear drain moves the tailpiece back toward the wall, which frees up usable cabinet floor for a disposal, pull-out trash, or a water filter, but it also means the P-trap arm is shorter. Check that your existing wall stub-out height clears the trap with the bowl sitting 10 inches below the countertop.

At the rim the bowl runs 23 inches long by 18 inches wide, and at the base it narrows to 21 by 16 inches because of the sloped walls. Depth is 10 inches. That bottom footprint takes a full size sheet pan laid flat, which is the usual reason buyers go to a 23 inch single bowl instead of a split bowl.

This Cahaba sink is 16 gauge stainless steel, which is the thicker of the two common kitchen sink gauges. The heavier wall dents less under dropped cookware and transmits less drumming noise, which is why spec writers for multi-family and hospitality units tend to call out 16 gauge. 18 gauge is lighter and more prone to flexing at the drain boss.

Micro radius means the bowl corners are formed with a very tight inside radius rather than a large sweeping curve, so the rectangular bowl reads square and modern. The corner is still radiused, not a true sharp 90, so a sponge or brush reaches into it. Fully square zero radius corners are the ones that trap debris.

Brushed stainless is the only finish offered. On a run of units that matters for consistency, since the brushed grain hides water spotting and light scratches better than a mirror polish and will match most brushed stainless faucets and appliance fronts.
