This Hardware Concepts countertop trash grommet fits a 12-inch bore and finishes the opening with a stainless steel liner, giving a kitchen or prep station a clean, durable scrap-disposal point built into the work surface.
A countertop trash grommet converts a cut opening in the work surface into a directed waste path, so scraps, peels, and trimmings go straight into a bin below instead of piling up on the counter. This stainless version suits prep stations in a residential kitchen, a catering setup, or a renovation where the countertop material is quartz, stone, or another hard surface that reads best with a metal insert rather than a painted or coated finish. The 12-inch opening is wide enough to handle bulkier scraps without backing up, and the liner guides waste downward into a bin positioned below the cutout.
Stainless steel resists the moisture, food acids, and repeated wiping that a countertop waste opening takes over time. In a kitchen where the sink, appliances, and hardware already carry a stainless or brushed-metal look, this grommet continues that material language at the countertop level. The 12-3/4-inch flange laps over the cut edge by 3/8 inch on each side, covering the raw perimeter cleanly. The liner sits 1 inch deep, keeping the unit from projecting above the surface or interfering with items set near the opening.
This grommet is a natural fit for a built-in island prep station, a high-use kitchen with a dedicated waste zone, or a remodel where the fabricator is cutting a bore into a hard countertop surface. Cabinet shops and contractors specifying countertop accessories will find the stainless finish the right call when the rest of the surface hardware is metal. For spaces where a painted or neutral finish blends better, the same grommet is available in white, almond, black, and other finishes to match the countertop or cabinetry.
It requires a 12-inch bore cut in the countertop. The 12-3/4-inch flange sits on top of the surface and covers the cut edge.
Stainless steel handles the moisture and cleaning that a countertop waste opening sees in daily use. Wipe it clean with the same products used on stainless kitchen surfaces.
No. This SKU is the grommet liner only. A waste bin sized for the opening is ordered separately and positioned below the cutout.
This grommet is designed for indoor kitchen and prep-station use. For outdoor installations, confirm that the countertop material and installation conditions are appropriate for stainless steel hardware before specifying.
Choose this stainless steel grommet to close out a 12-inch countertop bore with a low-profile metal liner that holds up to daily prep work and reads cleanly alongside stainless finishes in the kitchen.
