Blanco 516319 Precis 30 Single Sink Cutout
Description
The Blanco 516319 Precis 30 Single delivers exceptional capacity in a space-efficient 30-inch footprint, making it ideal for kitchens where full-size sinks are needed but 33-inch configurations exceed available cabinet space. This SILGRANIT composite sink features a generous 27-inch x 15.5-inch bowl that accommodates large cookware and baking sheets while fitting comfortably in 33-inch base cabinets. Professional fabricators value the Precis 30's clean rectangular design with subtle 0.75-inch corner radii that balance contemporary aesthetics with practical debris management. Our precision DXF template package provides four installation variants engineered for different reveal preferences, ensuring perfect fitment across granite, quartz, and solid surface applications where undermount installation is specified.

The Blanco 516319 Precis 30 Single delivers exceptional capacity in a space-efficient 30-inch footprint, making it ideal for kitchens where full-size sinks are needed but 33-inch configurations exceed available cabinet space. This SILGRANIT composite sink features a generous 27-inch x 15.5-inch bowl that accommodates large cookware and baking sheets while fitting comfortably in 33-inch base cabinets. Professional fabricators value the Precis 30's clean rectangular design with subtle 0.75-inch corner radii that balance contemporary aesthetics with practical debris management. Our precision DXF template package provides four installation variants engineered for different reveal preferences, ensuring perfect fitment across granite, quartz, and solid surface applications where undermount installation is specified.
Installation Overview
Single bowl sinks in the 30-inch category occupy a sweet spot between compact bar sinks and full-size 33-36 inch models, offering maximum bowl capacity without requiring oversized base cabinets. The 516319 Precis 30 requires a minimum 33-inch cabinet width, providing adequate installation clearance and structural support for the 9.5-inch deep bowl. When positioning the template, center the sink within the cabinet opening unless plumbing constraints or adjacent appliances dictate offset placement. The four template variants accommodate different installation approaches. Standard undermount installations work best with the 1/8-inch reveal variant which provides a visible ledge for installation tolerance while maintaining clean lines. The no-reveal option suits applications where maximum bowl rim exposure is desired, though this requires exceptional cutting precision since the countertop edge meets directly at the bowl perimeter. Use the 1/2-inch reveal for installations where pronounced ledge visibility enhances the design intent. The drop-in variant accommodates rare situations where undermount installation isn't feasible, though this contradicts the sink's design intent and is not recommended. Undermount clips should be positioned every 8-10 inches around the bowl perimeter, with additional support at corners where stress concentrations occur.
CNC Cutting Notes
The Precis 30's rectangular profile with rounded corners creates straightforward toolpath programming compared to complex multi-bowl configurations. Set up your cutting sequence to rough out the interior rectangle first, leaving material tabs to maintain slab rigidity, then make finishing passes along the perimeter including the corner radii. The 0.75-inch corner radius is large enough to cut with standard 10mm or 12mm diamond router bits without requiring specialized tooling. Program smooth G2/G3 arc interpolation for the corners rather than segmented linear approximations that create faceted surfaces. Feed rates can be aggressive on the straight sections at 120-150 inches per minute for quartz and granite, then reduced to 80-100 inches per minute through the corner transitions to maintain surface finish quality. The generous 27-inch bowl width means substantial material removal, so plan your cut sequence to balance material removal across both sides of the cutout, preventing asymmetric stress that could crack the slab during cutting. Always maintain continuous coolant flow to prevent heat buildup, especially critical in the extended straight sections where cutting time is longest.
Material Compatibility
The Blanco 516319 Precis 30 excels in premium countertop materials where its SILGRANIT composite construction complements natural stone and engineered surfaces. On granite and engineered quartz, undermount installation with the 1/8-inch reveal provides optimal results, creating a subtle shadow line that enhances depth perception while accommodating normal fabrication tolerances. Minimum countertop thickness is 2cm, though 3cm material is strongly recommended for structural integrity and improved edge finishing options around the cutout perimeter. The sink weighs approximately 30-35 pounds, requiring adequate cabinet support structure and properly positioned mounting clips to distribute load evenly. In solid surface installations like Corian, the non-porous SILGRANIT material creates an interesting contrast against the homogeneous substrate, though color coordination becomes important since the materials won't match tonally. Avoid installation in laminate countertops since the sink is designed exclusively for undermount applications. The 9.5-inch bowl depth requires adequate clearance beneath the countertop for the bowl to extend downward, verify available space accounts for the sink depth plus mounting hardware and plumbing connections.
Where to Buy
Purchase the Blanco 516319 Precis 30 Single through authorized kitchen and bath retailers including Ferguson, Build.com, Riverbend Home, and specialty plumbing suppliers. Typical retail pricing ranges from $350-$500 depending on color selection and retailer promotions. The 516319 model number corresponds to a specific SILGRANIT color finish, typically Metallic Gray, Anthracite, or similar standard colors. Blanco uses different model numbers for identical sinks in different colors, so verify the SKU matches your intended finish when ordering. Professional fabricators may access trade pricing through Ferguson's professional division or other wholesale plumbing distributors serving the countertop fabrication industry. Some retailers offer package deals bundling the sink with matching grid accessories, cutting boards, or bottom rinse baskets designed specifically for the Precis 30 bowl dimensions. All Blanco SILGRANIT sinks include a limited lifetime warranty covering manufacturing defects, material degradation, and finish integrity.
