The ALFI AB512UM 32-inch fireclay undermount sink offers superior durability and heat resistance for homeowners and designers seeking a premium, elegant kitchen upgrade.
Premium Fireclay Construction for Lasting Durability
Crafted from solid high-grade fireclay, the ALFI AB512UM kitchen sink delivers exceptional strength and longevity. This premium material ensures resistance to chipping, scratching, and daily wear, maintaining its elegant appearance through years of heavy use. The 7/8" thickness provides substantial weight and stability, while the fully glazed surfaces on all sides create a non-porous barrier against stains and bacteria.
Elegant Design with Functional Dimensions
Featuring a sophisticated double bowl configuration, this 32-inch undermount sink provides versatile workspace for multitasking in the kitchen. The bowls measure 14 3/4" x 16 1/8" x 7 1/8", offering ample depth for handling large pots and pans while maintaining comfortable ergonomics. The slight taper from top to bottom enhances both aesthetics and functionality, creating a sleek profile that complements modern cabinetry.
Superior Heat and Impact Resistance
With heat resistance up to 350°F, this fireclay sink safely accommodates hot cookware directly from the stove without risk of damage or thermal shock. The material's inherent strength provides excellent resistance to impacts and heavy utensils, ensuring your investment remains pristine despite daily culinary demands. This combination of thermal and mechanical durability makes it ideal for busy kitchens where performance matters.
Easy Maintenance and Hygiene
The fully glazed surface creates a smooth, non-porous finish that resists staining from coffee, wine, oils, and other common kitchen substances. Cleaning requires only simple wiping with standard household cleaners, while the undermount installation eliminates dirt-catching edges between countertop and sink. The 3 1/2" rear center drain placement facilitates efficient water flow and simplifies installation beneath most countertop materials.
Professional Grade Certification
Certified by the Uniform Plumbing Code (cUPC), the ALFI AB512UM meets rigorous standards for quality and performance expected by professional kitchen designers and contractors. This certification ensures compatibility with residential plumbing systems and adherence to industry benchmarks for material quality, dimensional accuracy, and overall reliability in daily kitchen operations.
Ideal Installation Considerations
Designed for undermount installation, this sink creates a seamless transition with your countertop for easy cleanup and a streamlined aesthetic. The fireclay construction requires professional installation to ensure proper support and sealing. Minor dimensional variations of up to 1/8 inch are normal due to the handcrafted nature of fireclay products, adding character to each unique piece while maintaining functional integrity.
