KRAUS Outlast MicroShield Scratch-Resist Stainless Steel Undermount 50/50 Double Bowl Sink, 32" 16 Gauge, Premier Series - KBU22E
Designed to handle the demands of the busiest kitchen, KRAUS Outlast MicroShield Scratch-Resist Stainless Steel sinks offer maximum durability, even with heavy use. The engineered material masks scratches and scuffs, retaining a like-new appearance with minimal maintenance.
Each KRAUS Outlast MicroShield sink is made from a single sheet of steel imprinted with an embossed pattern that provides superior resistance to dents and damage. The cutting-edge manufacturing process creates a textured surface with high wear points that reduce contact with heavy cookware, preventing damage from daily use. Since thicker steel means a stronger sink, all sinks in the KRAUS Outlast MicroShield Series are made with TRU16 real 16-gauge stainless steel, always 1.5mm thick. The extra-thick construction reduces vibrations, for a lower-toned sink that does not sound tinny. Best-in-industry KRAUS NoiseDefend sound dampening technology virtually eliminates noise when the sink is in use. Protective undercoating is added to enhance soundproofing and provide thermal regulation. KRAUS Outlast MicroShield Stainless Steel sinks come with a number of useful kitchen accessories to make maintenance easy. A stainless steel bottom grid, 3-piece basket strainer, and KRAUS towel are included with purchase. All sinks come with mounting hardware for easy installation. Explore KRAUS Outlast MicroShield Stainless Steel sinks, and discover the perfect solution for your busy kitchen.
