Metal sink Stalgast 981424240

A stainless steel sink unit built into the worktop provides a fixed washing and rinsing station in professional kitchens. Water from the tap fills the bowl, where pots, pans, utensils and ingredients are cleaned or soaked. The bowl's depth and volume determine how much can be submerged at once, while the surrounding deck gives space for draining and organising items before and after washing.

The bowl sits below the worktop level, creating a contained area that prevents splashes from reaching the floor or adjacent surfaces. A rim around the bowl's edge helps direct water back into the sink rather than onto the counter. The unit is plumbed directly into the kitchen's water supply and drainage, so water flows in and out continuously without manual filling or emptying.

To use the sink, the operator turns on the tap, adjusts the water temperature and flow, then places items into the bowl. Detergent is added as needed, and scrubbing or soaking takes place within the bowl. Once cleaned, items are lifted out and left on the deck to drain or are dried with a cloth. The bowl is emptied by opening the waste outlet, allowing water to drain away.

Construction is stainless steel throughout, chosen for resistance to corrosion, heat and repeated cleaning with commercial detergents. The unit's overall dimensions of 400 mm front to back, 410 mm side to side and 240 mm high fit standard worktop depths and allow installation between cupboards or under hobs. The bowl measures 330 mm by 300 mm across and 150 mm deep, providing capacity for large pots and trays while keeping the unit compact enough for tight kitchen layouts.

No controls are fitted to the sink itself; water flow and temperature are set at the tap, which is ordered separately. The sink's weight and solid construction mean it is positioned during kitchen fitting and remains fixed in place during use.

Cleaning involves wiping the stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and detergent after each service, then rinsing and drying to prevent water marks. The bowl and deck are scrubbed daily to remove food debris and grease, while the waste outlet is checked regularly to ensure it remains clear of blockages.

The catalogue places this unit in the sinks and washing-up section, under stainless steel worktop sinks for professional catering environments.
