Overview of round shaped kitchen sinks

The kitchen sink, besides its direct purpose, is also a key element in the design of a furniture set, therefore, in addition to the spaciousness and convenience of washing dishes, it must meet certain aesthetic requirements.

In order for the reader to make the right choice when buying a kitchen sink, this article will provide an overview guide that will help to combine all the necessary qualities in one product and choose the most suitable option for you.

The choice of material manufacturing

Despite the fact that most bathroom sinks are made mostly from sanitary ware, tempered glass, acrylic plastic, or natural stone, these materials are not suitable for the production of kitchen sinks, so most often they are made of stainless steel or composite materials based on polymer resins.

  1. Metal round mortise wash 50 cm is a whole deformed, stamped or welded round bowl, made of food grade stainless steel. Along the perimeter of the upper part there is a metal rim with which it rests on the tabletop, and in the lower part of the bottom and in the upper part of the rear sidewall there are drain and overflow holes. The main advantages of such sinks are high mechanical strength, absolute resistance to corrosion and temperature drops, a relatively low price, as well as a smooth, durable and hygienically clean surface.

  1. Modern round sinks made of artificial stone are completely similar in shape and size to metal sinks, but they are made of a monolithic composition of two dissimilar materials. Plastic polymeric resins are used as a binder, which provides them with high resistance to water and resistance to cracking from temperature changes. Ballast aggregate from natural mineral materials (quartz sand, granite or marble aggregate) allows you to give the products a noble appearance, high wear resistance, as well as an environmentally friendly and durable uniform surface.

Note! By changing the qualitative composition of the aggregate of an artificial stone, and introducing pigment dyes into its composition, it is possible to achieve almost any color and texture of the material; therefore, such products are produced in a wide range of colors, with a different type of textured pattern.

Varieties of round sinks

In addition to the material from which they are made, round kitchen sinks can also differ in their diameter, working depth, number of main and auxiliary bowls, as well as other technical parameters, depending on the specific model.

  1. By the number of bowls, kitchen sinks can be with one bowl, as well as with two or three bowls. In the latter case, the two bowls are basic, and are designed for washing dishes, vegetables and fruits, and the third, smaller size - auxiliary, is designed to install a drinking faucet or drain water from washed products.

  1. The depth of the main bowl can be in the range of 160-250 mm, however, the most optimal is considered to be the depth from 180 to 200 mm.
  2. The useful diameter of the bowl can also be within wide limits, and range from 300 to 550 mm, while most often there are sinks with a bowl diameter of 400-500 mm.
  3. Spaciousness and functionality of the shell depends largely on the radius of curvature at the points of transition of the bottom to the side walls. The smaller this radius, the greater the useful volume of each bowl.

Tip! The best solution is considered to be a round kitchen sink with two bowls, since such a design is easy to install with your own hands, and besides, it is fully capable of satisfying the culinary needs of a full-fledged family.
