The Blanco Precis 24 Single (model 516322) represents the perfect solution for compact kitchen installations where space efficiency meets premium quality.

Installation Overview
Installing the Blanco 516322 Precis 24 Single requires careful attention to cutout dimensions and proper undermount preparation. This sink demands a minimum 27-inch cabinet width to accommodate the 24-inch overall sink dimension plus necessary support structures. For fabricators, the key consideration is selecting the appropriate reveal variant based on the installation method and countertop material. The no-reveal variant cuts exactly to the 21-inch by 15.5-inch bowl dimensions, ideal for direct bonding applications. The 1/8-inch reveal option reduces the cutout to 20.75 inches by 15.25 inches, providing the standard undermount lip that most installers prefer for granite, quartz, and solid surface materials. The 1/2-inch overhang variant at 20 inches by 14.5 inches offers maximum stone support around the bowl perimeter, recommended for laminate countertops or installations requiring additional structural integrity. The drop-in variant matches the sink's outer dimensions at 24 inches by 18 inches, accommodating customers who prefer traditional top-mount installation. All variants feature 0.75-inch corner radii matching the sink's modern geometric design.
CNC Cutting Notes
When programming your CNC router for the Blanco 516322, precision is critical due to the sink's tight corner radii and Silgranit material properties. The 0.75-inch corner radius requires a finishing bit no larger than 0.5 inches to achieve clean, accurate curves without over-cutting. For granite and engineered stone, we recommend a two-pass approach: rough cut at 90% speed with a 3/8-inch diamond bit, followed by a finish pass at 60% speed to eliminate chipping. The undermount lip area demands extra attention since Silgranit composite is less forgiving than stainless steel during installation. Always verify your zero point references the sink's centerline for symmetrical placement. Polish the cutout edges to at least 220 grit before sink installation to ensure proper adhesive bonding and prevent microcracking at the lip interface.
Material Compatibility
The Blanco 516322 Precis 24 Single excels across all major countertop materials, though installation techniques vary by substrate. For granite and quartzite installations, the 1/8-inch reveal variant provides optimal support while allowing the Silgranit rim to compress slightly against the stone during curing. Quartz and engineered stone fabricators should ensure cutout edges are perfectly smooth since these materials bond aggressively with epoxy adhesives. Solid surface countertops work beautifully with the no-reveal variant, creating seamless integrated appearances when color-matched properly. Laminate installations benefit from the 1/2-inch overhang variant, distributing sink weight across more substrate area and reducing stress on particleboard cores. For ultra-compact surfaces like Dekton or Neolith, use the 1/8-inch reveal with specialized adhesives rated for non-porous materials. The Silgranit composite material is compatible with all standard undermount adhesives including silicone, epoxy, and polyurethane-based systems.
