Description – Klässich 55 Series Sink Mixer - Brushed Brass

The Klässich 55 Series Sink Mixer - Brushed Brass combines contemporary kitchen styling with practical all-pressure functionality. Its warm brushed brass finish creates a sophisticated feature around the sink while maintaining the straightforward operation required for everyday household use.

Brushed brass provides a softer and more understated metallic appearance than highly polished gold finishes. This makes it particularly suitable for contemporary kitchens where customers want warmth and visual character without creating an overly decorative look.

The finish can coordinate naturally with matching brass cabinet handles, lighting and kitchen accessories. It can also create an attractive contrast against stainless steel sinks, darker cabinetry, stone benchtops, timber surfaces and neutral interior finishes.

Designed with a U-shaped profile, the mixer provides useful clearance above the kitchen sink. This helps make everyday activities such as washing dishes, rinsing produce, filling containers and general cleaning more convenient.

The raised outlet also provides additional working room when larger cookware or containers need to be positioned beneath the mixer, making the U-shape practical as well as visually balanced.

The mixer is manufactured with a brass body and handle, providing a solid foundation for regular household kitchen use.

A 25mm KCG cartridge supports convenient control of water flow and temperature. This allows users to adjust the water according to different everyday kitchen requirements, whether cold water is needed for rinsing food or warmer water is required for washing and cleaning.

Two G1/2 x 400mm flexible stainless steel braided hoses provide the required water inlet connections. Their flexible construction supports installation within an appropriate kitchen plumbing configuration.

One of the main advantages of the Klässich 55 Series Sink Mixer is its all-pressure compatibility. It is designed for suitable high and low-pressure systems, providing useful flexibility across different New Zealand household plumbing arrangements.

Under high-pressure conditions, the mixer carries a 4 Star WELS rating and provides a specified flow rate of 7.5L/min at 250kPa.

Under low-pressure conditions, it carries a 6 Star WELS rating with a specified flow rate of 4.5L/min.

These pressure-specific ratings and flow rates provide clear information for homeowners, renovators and installers when assessing the mixer for the intended property.

For high-pressure installations, the 4 Star WELS rating provides practical water performance with a 7.5L/min flow rate at 250kPa. For low-pressure installations, the 6 Star rating provides highly efficient water performance within that pressure category.

This versatility is particularly useful in New Zealand, where household water-pressure configurations can vary between properties. During renovations, selecting all-pressure tapware can provide greater flexibility when working with an existing plumbing system.

For drinking water applications, the brass construction meets updated requirements under New Zealand Building Code Clause G12, Acceptable Solution G12/AS1 Amendment 14.

The brass has a maximum weighted average lead content of no more than 0.25 percent, meeting the applicable requirement for drinking water products. It also complies with NSF/ANSI/CAN 372:2020.

The brass construction is additionally dezincification resistant and tested to AS 2345:2006. DZR brass is designed to withstand corrosion associated with drinking water systems.

These characteristics are especially relevant for kitchen tapware because the same fixture may regularly supply water for drinking, cooking and food preparation as well as washing and cleaning.

For homeowners completing a renovation, the brushed brass finish provides an effective way to modernise the sink area while introducing warmth into the kitchen. It can be combined with matching fixtures for a coordinated appearance or used individually as a feature.

For new-build kitchens, the 55 Series provides a clean U-shaped design that can integrate naturally with contemporary cabinetry and benchtop materials.

Its practical value comes from the combination of straightforward water control, high and low-pressure compatibility, clearly specified WELS performance and compliant brass construction.

The Klässich 55 Series Sink Mixer therefore provides more than a decorative finish. It offers a balanced set of specifications designed around the practical requirements of everyday New Zealand kitchens.
