Des Plaines, IL: Chicago Faucets, manufacturer of the finest commercial faucets available, brings high quality to everyday applications with its new 640 Series kitchen sink faucets. The new faucets with integral supply stops feature durable brass construction and ceramic mixing valves for trouble-free operation.

The Chicago Faucets 640 Series is intended for use in the same applications as the popular 540 Series of 8" wall-mount kitchen faucets, but these new models include hot- and cold-water supply stops built right into the body. This allows maintenance personnel to service the cartridge or spout without turning off the main water supply: the water can be shut off at the point of use.

Solid ECAST® brass, chrome-plated bodies, which meet lead reduction laws, provide unmatched durability. Easy, hassle-free installation for simple retrofits is accomplished with 1/2" NPT female inlet arms adjustable for 6-1/4" to 9-3/4" centers. There are 22 standard models in common configurations. Plus, models are available without spouts: drop in any interchangeable Chicago Faucets spout to create a faucet that precisely matches your commercial sink.
