This is how HI-MACS® sinks and washbasins are installed.

Sinks and bowls in HI-MACS® can be fitted in two ways: under-mounted with a rebate if using the same colour of sheet and moulding or without a rebate if using different colours of sheet and moulding. The example below deals with matching colours.

1. Cut the sheet with a hand router so that the whole diameter of the cut-out is smaller than the inside diameter of the sink/bowl.
2. Create a rebate on the outline of the worktop’s cut-out with a double flute carbide router.
3. Apply adhesive in a continuous line into the worktop rebate or on the edge of the shape.
4. Place the shape into the rebate and clamp it.
5. When the glue has cured, trim off the cut-out and profile it with an angle of 45°.
6. Sand and finish off to a standard semi-gloss finish.
