Delta Victorian Widespread
Description
The Delta Victorian Widespread faucet template delivers precise cutting specifications for one of Delta's most elegant and timeless faucet collections. This professional DXF file provides exact geometry for the three-hole widespread configuration that defines the Victorian series, featuring the classic 8-inch center-to-center spacing with three 1.375-inch diameter holes. The Victorian collection draws inspiration from ornate 19th-century design elements, featuring graceful curves, intricate detailing, and cross-handle designs that evoke luxury and sophistication. This template is indispensable for fabricators working on traditional, transitional, and luxury bathroom projects where period-appropriate fixtures demand installation precision. Our CNC-ready file eliminates measurement errors and streamlines the layout process for both natural stone and engineered countertop materials. The widespread configuration allows independent positioning of handles and spout, creating a commanding aesthetic presence perfect for master bathrooms, powder rooms, and high-end hospitality applications. This template ensures that your fabrication work complements the Victorian faucet's refined details with equally precise countertop preparation, resulting in installations worthy of the finest residential and commercial interiors.

Installation Overview
Installing the Delta Victorian widespread faucet requires three accurately positioned holes in a linear arrangement with precise 8-inch spacing between the outer valve positions. The center hole accommodates the decorative spout assembly while the two outer holes at -4 inches and +4 inches from center receive the hot and cold handle valve bodies with their characteristic Victorian cross-handles. Each of the three holes requires the industry-standard 1.375-inch diameter, maintaining a tolerance of +0.010/-0.000 inches to ensure proper sealing and secure mounting. Position the faucet hole pattern a minimum of 2.5 inches from the countertop's rear edge to provide adequate clearance for the spout casting and supply line connections. The Victorian widespread design requires 10-14 inches of clearance below the deck surface to accommodate valve installation, mounting hardware, and the interconnecting supply tubes that link handles to the spout body. Standard installation supports countertop thicknesses up to 2.25 inches; for thicker stone slabs, Delta offers extended mounting components as special-order items. When establishing the layout, position the center spout hole 6-8 inches from the sink center line, adjusting based on sink dimensions and desired spout reach. Perfect linear alignment of all three holes is critical—deviation exceeding 0.125 inches can cause visible faucet misalignment and complicate installation.
CNC Cutting Notes
Load this Victorian widespread template into your CNC programming software and carefully verify the 8-inch center-to-center dimension between outer holes before generating toolpaths. Create three individual circular tool paths or employ core drilling operations to produce the required 1.375-inch diameter holes with consistent edge quality. Use rigid tooling with minimal extension to prevent deflection and achieve precise hole positioning—positional accuracy within ±0.0625 inches is essential for proper faucet assembly. For granite, marble, and quartzite fabrication, program pecking cycles with 0.125-0.25 inch depth increments and complete retraction for effective chip removal and heat dissipation. When machining engineered quartz materials, reduce spindle speeds and feed rates by 30-40% compared to natural stone to minimize resin matrix stress and prevent micro-cracking. Always drill from the finished top surface toward the underside, employing sacrificial backer material to eliminate bottom-surface blowout and edge chipping. Post-machining inspection should verify both individual hole diameters and center-to-center spacing using precision measuring instruments. For waterjet cutting operations, decrease cutting speed to 40-50% of normal rates within a 0.75-inch radius of each hole to achieve acceptable edge finish without requiring secondary grinding or polishing. Note that widespread faucet installations demand higher positional accuracy than single-hole configurations due to the rigid connection between faucet components—hole position errors cannot be compensated during installation.
Material Compatibility
The Delta Victorian widespread template provides complete compatibility with all common countertop fabrication materials including natural stones (granite, marble, quartzite, soapstone), engineered quartz composites (Caesarstone, Cambria, Silestone, Viatera, MSI Q), solid surface products (Corian, Hi-Macs, Staron, Avonite), and ultra-compact sintered surfaces (Dekton, Neolith, Lapitec). The 8-inch hole spacing and standard 1.375-inch diameter maintain adequate material integrity across all substrate types when minimum edge distance specifications are observed. Natural stone materials require diamond-impregnated core bits or router tools with continuous water-based cooling systems to prevent thermal shock, micro-fracture initiation, and premature tool wear. Engineered quartz materials demand specialized attention during machining operations—utilize diamond tooling specifically formulated for polymer-bound composites and reduce cutting parameters to prevent excessive heat buildup that can cause resin degradation, discoloration, and stress-crack propagation around hole perimeters. Solid surface materials permit higher feed rates and cutting speeds but require exceptionally sharp cutting edges to prevent material tearing, chip-out, and poor surface finish that necessitates secondary operations. Ultra-compact surfaces rank among the industry's hardest materials, requiring premium sintered diamond tooling and accepting significantly reduced tool life expectancy compared to natural stone applications. This template accommodates countertop thickness ranging from 0.75 inches (2cm slabs) to 2.25 inches (6cm thick slabs), covering standard residential applications and luxury thick-slab installations. When working with book-matched or vein-matched natural stone, strategically position the widespread hole pattern to enhance the material's natural character while avoiding structural compromise along prominent veining or fissures.
Where to Buy
Delta Victorian widespread faucets (3555 and 35955 series) are available through established plumbing wholesale channels including Ferguson Enterprises, Hajoca Corporation, Morrison Supply Company, and F.W. Webb for professional contractor and fabricator pricing. Retail distribution includes The Home Depot, Lowe's Home Improvement, and specialty kitchen and bath design showrooms for homeowner and interior designer purchases. Online availability includes Build.com, eFaucets.com, FaucetDirect.com, and Amazon with varying inventory levels across finish options. For fabricators coordinating with designers and homeowners, verify the specific model number and finish selection (3555-MPU-DST for chrome, 3555-RBMPU-DST for Venetian bronze, 35955-RB-DST for oil-rubbed bronze, etc.) before initiating countertop fabrication. Standard finishes like chrome and brushed nickel typically maintain stock availability for immediate shipment, while specialty finishes including Venetian bronze, champagne bronze, and stainless may require 7-14 days for special order fulfillment. Commercial specification projects requiring ADA compliance certifications, specific flow rate restrictions, or California/Vermont lead-free compliance should verify product specifications with Delta's commercial products division prior to specification and installation. Multi-unit residential developments and hospitality projects may qualify for volume pricing and coordinated delivery scheduling through wholesale distribution partners.
