Stainless Steel Undermount Sink for Compact Kitchen Stations
The Karran Profile PU27N is an 18 gauge stainless steel single-bowl undermount kitchen sink sized to fit smaller sink bases without sacrificing bowl depth. At 23 by 17-3/4 by 8-3/4 inches, it works cleanly in kitchens, secondary prep stations, and cabinetry projects where a full-width double bowl would crowd the run.
Key Features
• 18 gauge stainless steel construction delivers a solid, dent-resistant bowl suited to daily kitchen use.
• Single-bowl configuration maximizes uninterrupted basin space within the 23 inch footprint.
• 8-3/4 inch bowl depth accommodates pots, baking sheets, and larger cookware without backsplash splash-out.
• Undermount installation keeps the countertop edge clean and wipe-down simple, with no rim collecting debris.
• Brushed satin stainless finish resists everyday water spots and coordinates with a wide range of hardware finishes.
• Sold in a box of 40 makes this an efficient sourcing option for cabinet shops, multi-unit projects, and volume installs.
Where This Sink Fits the Job
A 23 inch single bowl is the go-to choice when the sink base is narrower than a standard 36 inch run — think secondary kitchens, apartment renovations, in-law suites, or tight galley layouts. The uninterrupted basin gives the full bowl interior to one wash station rather than splitting the space, so a smaller footprint doesn't mean a cramped working area. At 8-3/4 inches deep, the bowl handles a full sheet pan and doesn't send water over the edge when filling tall stock pots. Undermount mounting lets the countertop do the visual work: the bowl drops cleanly beneath the stone, quartz, or solid surface top with no exposed rim to interrupt the surface line.
Material and Build
The Profile series runs 18 gauge stainless throughout — thick enough for a sturdy, quiet bowl in residential kitchen use. The brushed satin surface finish is consistent with the Profile line and softens the look of water marks between cleanings. Because the sink mounts from below, faucet and accessory holes are drilled through the countertop rather than a sink deck, giving the installer flexibility on placement and giving designers a cleaner surface view. Standard undermount installation uses the fastening and adhesive method appropriate to the countertop material; the installer should confirm the support method before cutting.
Who Orders This Sink and Why
Cabinet shops running multi-unit residential projects — apartments, condos, production homes — benefit most from the 40-count box. A consistent specification across a building means fewer spec changes, simpler ordering, and predictable install workflows. Contractors outfitting secondary prep areas or smaller kitchens reach for this size to fit the available cabinet run without custom-ordering or cutting down a larger unit. Designers specifying kitchens where a workstation ledge or farmhouse apron is not part of the design brief will find the Profile's clean silhouette straightforward to call out on a fixture schedule.
What countertop materials work with this undermount sink?
The PU27N undermounts in solid surface, quartz, granite, and comparable hard-surface materials using the fastening and silicone method standard for each. This is a conventional undermount, not a seamless-rim model, so countertop edge treatment is finished separately. Laminate countertops are not a documented application for standard undermount installation.
Is a drain or mounting hardware included?
The PU27N ships as the sink only. A basket strainer drain, mounting clips, and silicone sealant are sourced separately and should be confirmed before install day.
Does the box of 40 represent individual sinks?
Yes — the case pack contains 40 individual PU27N sinks. Single-unit purchasing may be available; check the quantity selector on this page for available break points.
What minimum cabinet width does this sink require?
The overall sink width is 23 inches. Confirm the minimum cabinet size against your specific base cabinet before cutting; cabinet fit depends on the countertop overhang, wall clearances, and the fastening method in use.
A Reliable Standard for Volume Sink Specs
When a project calls for a clean, compact single-bowl undermount at volume, the Profile PU27N gives shops and contractors a consistent, well-proportioned sink they can spec across multiple units without revisiting the decision on each one.
