When choosing a faucet to fit a sink with a 1.125 diameter, several factors related to size need to be considered.
For the installation hole, although the sink has a 1.125 diameter, the faucet’s installation hole diameter should be slightly larger. Standard sizes like 1.375 inches or 1.5 inches are common, so make sure the sink’s opening can accommodate this.
The height of the faucet is typically around 10 – 15 inches. This allows for easy access and use without hitting any obstructions above the sink, such as cabinets. The spout length usually ranges from 6 – 10 inches. A proper spout length ensures that water can reach the center of the sink without splashing out, considering the depth and width of the 1.125 diameter sink.
Regarding the handle, for a single-handle faucet, its diameter is about 1 – 2 inches, and it should have enough clearance for smooth operation. In the case of a double-handle faucet, the center distance between the two handles is around 4 – 8 inches for comfortable use.
The distance between the faucet base center and the sink edge is preferably 1.5 – 2 inches to ensure stability and good water coverage. Also, the inlet size, commonly 1/2 inch or 3/4 inch, must match the household water supply pipes for proper connection and water flow.
In general, single-hole faucets, double-hole faucets with a suitable center distance, and some well-designed above-counter faucets can be considered, as long as their various size parameters meet the requirements mentioned above to fit a sink with a 1.125 diameter properly.
