sink grates protect stainless steel sinks by preventing direct contact between cookware and the sink surface. They help reduce scratches, improve drainage, and maintain the appearance of stainless steel sink bottoms.

Durable
Corrosion resistant
Easy to maintain
However, daily kitchen activities can still affect the sink surface.
Common causes of wear include:
