Stop sacrificing durability for fit. This front cross brace secures sink frameworks quickly, restoring structural alignment and maintaining sanitation standards in busy kitchens. Food service teams gain a compact reinforcement that installs with minimal downtime and integrates with most FC, FS, and FE series configurations.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug adjacent equipment and clear work area. Remove old cross brace per manufacturer notes; disconnect plumbing if retrofit. Mix mild detergent with warm water (use gallons or liters as needed). Scrub brace and surrounding frame with non-abrasive pad. Rinse with clean water and dry completely to prevent corrosion. Inspect welds and fasteners; tighten or replace worn parts. Regular cleaning reduces bacteria, fire risk from grease, energy use, breakdowns, and helps pass CSA inspections.#@@#Additional Info#@#Advance Tabco FC-CB-1 front cross brace fits FC, FS, and FE series sinks at least 3 feet long; technicians install by disconnecting plumbing. The 2-pound CSA-certified steel brace reinforces sink frames for commercial foodservice.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop sacrificing durability for fit. This front cross brace secures sink frameworks quickly, restoring structural alignment and maintaining sanitation standards in busy kitchens. Food service teams gain a compact reinforcement that installs with minimal downtime and integrates with most FC, FS, and FE series configurations.
#@@# Front Cross Brace#@#
This front brace fits FC, FS, and FE series sinks that measure a minimum of 3 feet, providing immediate lateral support where counters face the busiest zones. Technicians install the brace using the sink's overall length minus the drainboard length to determine the required feet, reducing measurement errors and installation time.
#@@# Retrofit Installation#@#
Field retrofit requires disconnecting existing plumbing before fitting the brace, ensuring safe access and a precise attachment point. Certified installers complete the retrofit without altering basin geometry, preserving drainage performance and serviceability.
#@@# Material Certification#@#
Constructed to meet industry compliance, this brace carries CSA recognition for commercial applications and integrates with existing stainless assemblies. Operators rely on certified components to satisfy inspection protocols and procurement standards.
#@@# Weight and Handling#@#
Weighing approximately 2 pounds, the brace remains light enough for single-person handling while offering rigid support once mounted. Staff can transport and position the unit rapidly, minimizing labor hours during refit cycles.
#@@# Compatibility Guidelines#@#
Use the overall sink length and subtract the drainboard length to calculate the number of feet required, which prevents undersizing or oversizing during specification. Facility planners apply this simple rule to ensure the brace aligns with the sink leg layout and load paths.
#@@# Service and Maintenance#@#
The design allows easy visual inspection and access for tightening or replacement without disturbing adjacent fixtures.
