Hansgrohe Talis Select
Description
The Hansgrohe Talis Select faucet template delivers precision hole patterns for one of Hansgrohe's most innovative kitchen faucet lines. The Talis Select series features their signature Select button technology, which allows users to start and stop water flow with a simple touch using the back of the hand, palm, or forearm - perfect for busy kitchen environments. Despite this advanced functionality, the Talis Select maintains a standard single-hole mounting configuration, requiring a 1.375-inch diameter hole in the countertop. This DXF template is specifically engineered for countertop fabricators working with the Talis Select series, providing exact dimensions for professional installation in granite, quartz, marble, and solid surface materials. The template integrates seamlessly with CNC programming software and CAD applications, ensuring accurate hole placement that accommodates the faucet's mounting assembly and under-deck clearance requirements.

Installation Overview
The Hansgrohe Talis Select faucet installs through a single deck-mounted hole, simplifying the installation process while maintaining the sophisticated functionality of the Select button system. The 1.375-inch hole diameter is standard across all Talis Select models, whether kitchen prep faucets or standard kitchen configurations. When planning the installation, position the faucet hole 2-4 inches behind the sink's back edge for optimal spout reach. The Talis Select line includes various spout heights and reach options, so verify the specific model's spout reach to ensure proper coverage of the sink area. Under-deck clearance is critical - ensure at least 14 inches of space below the mounting surface for the supply line connections and the faucet's mounting hardware. The Select button mechanism is integrated into the spout body, so no additional holes or special routing is required. Maximum deck thickness for Talis Select models is typically 1.5 inches, though some models accommodate up to 2 inches with extended mounting hardware.
CNC Cutting Notes
When programming CNC toolpaths for Talis Select faucet holes, precision is essential to ensure proper seating of the mounting assembly. Use a diamond core bit with continuous rim design for engineered quartz and natural stone materials. Program a helical boring operation starting from the top surface, with incremental depth passes of 0.125-0.25 inches per revolution. Set spindle speed to 4000 RPM for quartz and 3500 RPM for granite, with feed rates of 30-40 IPM adjusted based on material hardness. Maintain constant water flow to the cutting area to prevent thermal stress and material fracturing. For the Talis Select installation, hole edge quality is particularly important as the faucet's base plate may not include a large decorative escutcheon - the hole edges will be more visible. After CNC cutting, deburr the top and bottom edges with 120-grit diamond pads, then polish to 220-grit for a professional finish. When working with patterned or veined materials, position the hole to avoid cutting through prominent veins that could create aesthetic issues or structural weak points. Test your toolpath on scrap material before cutting into finished countertops, especially when working with premium stone selections.
Material Compatibility
The Hansgrohe Talis Select template is universally compatible with all countertop materials commonly used in residential and commercial kitchen installations. For natural granite and marble, the 1.375-inch hole cuts cleanly with diamond core bits and proper water cooling. Granite's crystalline structure benefits from slower feed rates and multiple shallow passes, while marble's softer composition allows slightly faster cutting speeds. Engineered quartz materials like Caesarstone, Cambria, and Silestone require sharp diamond tooling and careful attention to cutting parameters to prevent edge chipping - the resin content in quartz makes it more susceptible to heat damage, so water cooling is critical. Solid surface materials like Corian can be cut with carbide or diamond bits at higher speeds, offering more forgiving tolerances. Ultra-compact surfaces including Dekton and Neolith demand the highest quality diamond tooling due to their extreme hardness and brittleness. When fabricating for the Talis Select specifically, consider that the faucet's modern aesthetic pairs well with contemporary quartz colors and patterns, though it adapts beautifully to classic granite and marble installations as well. The compact mounting footprint makes it suitable for installations where deck space is limited, such as prep sink applications or galley-style kitchens.
Where to Buy
Hansgrohe Talis Select faucets are available through professional plumbing distributors, authorized kitchen and bath showrooms, and select online retailers. Fabricators and contractors can source Talis Select models through Ferguson, F.W. Webb, Hajoca Corporation, and Morrison Supply. These wholesale distributors provide access to technical specifications, installation guides, and professional support. Retail availability includes The Home Depot for select Talis Select models, with the full product line available through specialized kitchen and bath retailers. Online options include Build.com, FaucetDirect, and QualityBath for both professional and consumer purchases. The Talis Select line includes multiple finish options including Chrome, Brushed Nickel (Steel Optik), and Matte Black, with pricing varying by finish and specific model features. When specifying for clients, confirm the exact model number as Talis Select includes various spout heights (Prep, HighArc) and spray functionality (pull-out vs. pull-down). Working with authorized Hansgrohe dealers ensures access to warranty service and technical support, which is valuable for resolving any installation questions or addressing client concerns during the project.
