Wall Mount Kitchen Faucets
Wall-mount kitchen faucets are either a two-hole or three-hole installation, installed on the wall behind the sink, leaving the countertop clear for a cleaner look. Because of the horizontal pop these faucets give, they are more of a centerpiece, perfect for planning a design around. Additionally, their unique look is great for a variety of styles from Art Deco to Old-World inspired. (Great in laundry rooms, too!)
Wall Mount Kitchen Faucets are Constructed in Various Materials
(1) BRASS – Resistant to soft-water corrosion as well as rust. As an alloy of copper and zinc, it is the most frequent material used for kitchen and bath products.
(2) BRASS AND ZINC ALLOY – Zinc alloy is a durable, low-cost material that is usually heavy; resistant to corrosion, rustproof, and is mixed into other different alloys (Aluminum); considered versatile.
Swivel Spout Feature
The wall mount kitchen faucets provide a 180-degree swivel spout feature–giving you versatility and functionality while working at the sink!
4 Types of Cartridges for Kitchen Faucets

|---|---|---|---|
Ceramic CartridgeThe ceramic disc cartridge is a self-contained system consisting of two ceramic discs with quarter-circle openings rotating one on top of the other and controls water flow by (a) lining up or (b) covering the openings. Due to its nature, ceramic carbide does not wear out due to friction, however special care should be taken in flushing all the lines prior to installing your faucet since any debris in the line may crack one or both of the ceramic discs. |
Washerless CartridgeThe washerless cartridge consists of a neoprene donut-shaped stopper that which seals the flow of water by maintaining constant pressure against a steel plate with the aid of a spring. The plate has a crescent-shape opening, so as the cartridge turns, the opening is aligned with the opening of the neoprene seal, allowing water flow. As the faucet is turned off, the opening of the seal is blocked by the solid portion of the stainless steel plate, blocking water flow. |
Stainless Steel Ball ValveThe stainless steel ball valve is described as a spherical-shaped device that features small round slots with a small control lever. When the lever is moved, the object’s movement controls the flow and the temperature of the water. The use of the handle allows the ball to rotate inside the faucet. The valve is made from 304-grade stainless steel material, known to be tarnish and corrosion-resistant providing years of exceptional use. |
Compression CartridgeCompression type cartridges was the original system used in production faucets, a shaft with a washer at its end is rotated in a corkscrew fashion until the rubber washer compresses against an opening preventing the flow of water. These cartridges are not as common now as most faucets are replaced by washerless or ceramic cartridge faucets. |
