Answer summary
What is the Kingston Brass Restoration Bridge DXF template for?
Kingston Brass Restoration Bridge is a faucet & fixture holes DXF template for countertop fabrication. Use it only after matching the manufacturer, model, dimensions, variant, and shop workflow to the actual job.
Risk check: Similar-looking products can use different cutout geometry. Confirm the official spec, shop tolerance, material behavior, and CNC output before production.
Next step: Run a DXF check, compare related templates, and keep the current manufacturer spec with the job packet.
Template decision guide
Should you use the Kingston Brass Restoration Bridge DXF template?
Use the template page to shortlist a production file, then verify the exact model, variant, and machine workflow before cutting.
Best fit
Kingston Brass Restoration Bridge is most useful when the product, manufacturer, model, install type, and variant match the job you are fabricating.
What to compare
Compare model number, dimensions, reveal or overhang, bowl or appliance geometry, material thickness, and CNC output requirements.
Risk check
Do not use a similar-looking template as a final production file. Small changes in flange, radius, trim, or reveal can cause a failed cutout.
Evidence to verify
Check the current manufacturer spec, field measurement, template preview, DXF layers, and a shop-approved tolerance before production.

These notes are assembled from this exact template record, its category, available variants, and nearby template comparisons. They are meant to make the page more useful than a generic download page.
Exact record SlabWise is using
kingston is filed under Faucet & Fixture Holes. The normalized record lists no normalized dimensions are listed in the template record, so the safest use is as a production starting point that still gets checked against the current job packet.
Variant choice
This record is shown as a single template variant. Treat that as a reason to verify reveal, overhang, and cutout assumptions before the file reaches production.
Category-specific production check
Faucet & Fixture Holes files should be checked for fit against material thickness, edge treatment, sink or appliance clearance, CNC layer expectations, and the shop's preferred tolerance before cutting customer material.

Bridge-style kitchen faucets from the Kingston Brass Restoration collection bring traditional elegance to modern kitchens while requiring specific hole placement for proper installation. This professional fabrication template defines the exact two-hole configuration needed for bridge faucet mounting: two 1.375-inch diameter holes positioned 8 inches apart center-to-center. Designed for countertop fabricators and kitchen installers working with granite, quartz, marble, and solid surface materials, this DXF template ensures precise hole placement for Kingston Brass Restoration bridge faucets. The distinctive bridge design features an exposed connecting tube between handles and spout, creating the classic Victorian-era aesthetic that defines the Restoration series.
Installation Overview
Bridge faucets represent a unique installation category that differs from both centerset and widespread configurations. The Kingston Brass Restoration bridge faucet requires two mounting holes positioned 8 inches apart center-to-center, each with a 1.375-inch diameter. Unlike widespread faucets that have three separate components connected by hoses beneath the deck, bridge faucets feature two deck-mounted legs with an exposed connecting bridge spanning between them above the deck surface. The spout typically mounts to one of the two legs, with hot and cold valves controlling water flow through the visible bridge. This design creates the signature look of vintage bridge faucets while meeting modern plumbing codes. The two holes are typically positioned 2-4 inches from the back edge of the countertop and centered over the sink. Some bridge faucet models include additional holes for side sprayers or soap dispensers, but the basic Restoration bridge configuration uses the two-hole pattern specified in this template.
CNC Cutting Notes
Import the DXF template into your CNC control software and verify the two hole positions are exactly 8 inches apart center-to-center, measuring from hole centerpoint to hole centerpoint. Each hole must be precisely 1.375 inches in diameter with clean, perpendicular walls for proper faucet valve installation. Tolerance on hole spacing should be maintained within ±0.020 inches to ensure the bridge faucet's rigid connecting tube aligns properly between the two mounting positions. For CNC router operations on granite or quartz, use 35mm (1-3/8 inch) diamond core bits operating at 2000-2500 RPM with continuous water cooling. Feed rates of 20-30 IPM work well for most natural stone materials; reduce to 15-20 IPM for harder materials like quartzite or dense granite. CNC waterjet systems provide excellent results using 80-mesh garnet abrasive at optimized cutting parameters to minimize taper and achieve smooth hole edges. Ensure both holes are positioned on the same centerline axis parallel to the back edge of the countertop. The rigid bridge connection between faucet components means hole alignment is critical - misaligned holes will prevent proper faucet installation.
Material Compatibility
This Kingston Brass Restoration bridge faucet template is compatible with all standard kitchen countertop materials including natural granite, engineered quartz (Cambria, Caesarstone, Silestone, Hanstone, Viatera), marble, quartzite, soapstone, concrete, butcher block, and solid surface materials (Corian, Hi-Macs, Wilsonart). Bridge faucets work with undermount sink installations where the faucet mounts to the countertop deck behind the sink, or with farmhouse/apron-front sinks when deck space permits. The 1.375-inch hole diameter is standard across all countertop materials, though drilling techniques vary by material hardness and composition. Laminate countertops can accommodate bridge faucets if the substrate is solid and properly supported at the hole locations. Tile countertops present installation challenges and typically require mounting to solid substrate areas rather than individual tiles. For ultra-thin porcelain slabs, verify the slab thickness (minimum 12mm recommended) provides adequate support for the faucet's weight and operational stress. Natural stone slabs with heavy veining require careful hole placement to avoid structural veins that could compromise integrity.
Where to Buy
Kingston Brass Restoration bridge kitchen faucets are available through authorized kitchen and bath showrooms, plumbing supply distributors, and online retailers specializing in premium kitchen fixtures. The Restoration collection embodies traditional Victorian styling with modern manufacturing quality and water-efficient performance. Available finishes include polished chrome, brushed nickel, oil-rubbed bronze, polished brass, antique brass, and matte black to coordinate with various kitchen design aesthetics. Bridge faucet models in the Restoration line typically include the main faucet body with integrated spout, mounting hardware, and installation instructions. Some models offer optional side spray attachments that require an additional 1.375-inch hole placement. When ordering for a fabrication project, confirm the specific model number and verify the 8-inch hole spacing matches your template. Kingston Brass offers both standard-reach and high-arc spout options in the Restoration bridge series. Most models include ceramic disc valves for reliable, drip-free operation and comply with applicable plumbing codes and water efficiency standards.
