Dex
33" Undermount 16 Gauge Stainless Steel 50/50 Double Bowl Kitchen Sink with DrainAssure Waterway
The Dex Series uses a combination of durable materials and modern product design to help you keep your kitchen cleaner. The only sink of its kind, Dex is designed with a unique DrainAssure waterway to ensure that water drains quickly, even when the sink is full of dishes. The easy-to-clean stainless steel surface is naturally non-porous, leaving fewer places where dirt and grime can hide. The contemporary design features rounded corners for a fresh look that brings modern style to any kitchen. Engineered for superior durability, Dex sinks are made with high-performance TRU16-Gauge stainless steel to stand up to everyday needs. Wear-resistant Radiant Pearl finish with circular brushing helps mask scratches and scuffs that can occur over time for a long-lasting lustrous sheen. Designed to maximize usable workspace, Dex sinks give you even more room for washing dishes and produce. Sweeping rounded corners and a gently sloped sink bottom promote complete drainage and help prevent messy build-up for easy cleaning. Super-silencer NoiseDefend pads with an innovative foil layer cover all sides of the sink, reducing the tinny sound of running water while the sink is in use. Undermount installation creates a seamless transition from countertop to sink for easy cleaning, helping keep debris from getting stuck when you are wiping down the counters. The sink comes with the VersiDrain assembly that traps food debris and conceals drain fittings. A cutout template and mounting hardware are included for hassle-free installation.
