1" in diameter, but it's made of some sort of plastic. Invest in one that is metallic.
The mounting ring has a similar outside diameter to the pop-up drain you'll probably use. I used a round vessel and it worked fine; I believe it will work as long as the drain area of the vessel is not impacted by its shape. If you already have the drain, check for roundness by inverting it in the vessel.
I looked up the sink (I assume it's the round one), and it appears to have a flat bottom, so the ring is unnecessary. Yes, it would work if it is indeed rounded.
If the bucket has a lip on the bottom, you will be able to do so. This ring also includes a gasket, ensuring that your vessel is properly sealed.
Selected User Reviews For Elite Oil Rubbed Bronze Mounting Ring for Bathroom Glass Vessel Sink
Knowing which seal went where would have been easier if there had been a small diagram. This item includes two seals: one that is completely flat and the other that has a raised lip for fitting into the ring's hole. We tried installing it that way because the flat one was on top and would touch the sink, while the one with the raised lip was on the bottom and would touch the vanity in the box. It didn't work because as we tightened the pop-up drain, the flat seal squished out of its home (between the sink and the ring) and began to malform, turning into an oval. As a result, we changed the seals and had no issues after that. I'm not sure if that was the right thing to do, but we haven't had any leaks and both seals have stayed in place.
However, there is a hard, plastic ring on the inside of the container. br>I only used the flat gasket with no lip, which I placed on top of the ring directly beneath my glass vessel sink. I believe the lipped gasket is supposed to go in the drain hole, but it made the hole too small for my drain to fit through. Perhaps you'll require it if the hole in your vanity is a little too large? Otherwise, it isn't required. Sitting directly on my counter top, the hard rubber gasket inside this ring works fine. br>All you have to do now is tighten your drain. One commenter claimed that his sink would spin if he put his hands in it. The water seal is IN the bowl and, of course, underneath, so it won't harm a vessel sink. br>My previous glass vessel sink was always spinning and never leaked. You'll crack your sink if you try to tighten it too much! br>This ring goes well with my'set' and is unobtrusive.
The same item was available locally, but not in this color, and it was more convenient to have it delivered. Even when it was delivered, the price remained the same.
This is a nice heavy ring that looks great, but the bowl will still spin and move a little no matter how tight you make it. Even after breaking my tool by squeezing the bowl so hard, it continued to move. It's not a lot, but it's just right. All of that could be fixed with a small ring of silicone rubber glue underneath the ring, in between their provided silicon ring and on top of the silicon ring against the bowl; they should suggest it as an option in the instructions. It's nearly impossible to glue it after it's been installed; it has to be done at the time of installation.
It came with no instructions and two rubber-like gaskets, so swapping them around until it looks right was simple.
We didn't need them to keep the sinks from rocking, which I had assumed we would.
The ring has been in place under the vessel sink I bought on Amazon for about 7 or 8 months. There is no issue at all. NO LEAKS. Our plumber, who had never installed a vessel sink or its components before, stated that he had no issues.
We bought it with the vessel sink and aren't sure if we'll use it, but it looks nice.
