Product Information
Full details
This 2-inch heavy-duty brass disc from Westbrass is designed for homeowners looking to neatly cover unused sink holes. Its primary benefit is providing a clean, low-profile finish that is easier to maintain than traditional deck plates. A potential caveat is its specific 2-inch size, requiring precise measurement before purchase. Key features include durable brass construction, a low-profile design for easier cleaning, a solid threaded rod with a wing nut for secure installation, and a reversible washer to accommodate various sink thicknesses.

FAQs
What is the exact diameter of the cover plate?
The cover plate itself is designed to cover a standard 2-inch sink hole. The visible disc portion has a slightly larger diameter to ensure full coverage.
How do I know if the reversible washer will fit my sink?
The reversible washer has two sides designed for thin and thick sinks. Hold the washer against your sink material; one side should sit flush or properly against the underside for a secure fit.
Can this be used to cover a drain opening?
This cover is designed for unused faucet or accessory holes, typically 2 inches in diameter. It is not intended as a drain stopper or to cover standard drain openings which are usually 3.5 inches.
What material is the cover made of?
The cover is made of heavy-duty brass.
How do I clean the oil rubbed bronze finish?
Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild dish soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers to maintain the finish.
Is this product adjustable for different hole sizes?
No, this product is specifically designed for a 2-inch hole. Ensure your hole measures 2 inches before purchasing.
Troubleshooting
Cover is wobbly after installation
Ensure the wing nut underneath the sink is tightened securely. Check that the reversible washer is correctly oriented for your sink's thickness.
Threaded rod seems too long or short
The threaded rod is designed to accommodate a range of sink thicknesses. Ensure the wing nut is fully engaged with the threads. If it's significantly too long, double-check the washer orientation; if too short, verify the hole size is indeed 2 inches.
Finish appears scratched or damaged
Inspect the finish. If damaged upon arrival, contact the retailer. For minor scratches during use, avoid abrasive cleaning methods. Minor imperfections may be inherent to the oil-rubbed bronze process.
