Fontana Commercial Touchless Faucets™ | Architectural and Engineering Resource
Fontana FS-9564BN Commercial Brushed Nickel Touchless Automatic Sensor Sink Faucet:
Mounting Hardware Cross-Section Detail
This mounting hardware cross-section resource is intended to support architects,
plumbing engineers, countertop fabricators, contractors, installers and facility
managers coordinating the Fontana FS-9564BN commercial touchless automatic sensor
sink faucet. The drawing package communicates the faucet base, countertop interface,
rubber gasket, metal washer, mounting nut, threaded shank, hot and cold supply hoses,
and the installed side-view relationship beneath the deck.
Fontana FS-9564BN Mounting Hardware & Countertop Interface
The FS-9564BN is secured to the countertop through a concealed mounting
assembly consisting of the faucet base, rubber gasket, metal washer,
mounting nut and threaded shank. The cross-section detail clarifies the
order and location of these components and shows the hot and cold supply
hoses continuing below the deck.

Required Mounting Hardware Cross-Section Drawing Package
Each drawing should use a consistent component-identification system and clearly
show the relationship between the faucet base, countertop, sealing components,
mounting hardware and supply connections. The package should identify maximum
countertop thickness, hardware order, threaded-shank engagement, under-counter
clearance and the installed assembly condition.
Mounting Cross-Section
Shows the complete relationship between the faucet body, countertop, gasket, washer, mounting nut, threaded shank and hot/cold supply hoses in section.
Exploded Mounting View
Illustrates the mounting components in assembly order so installers can identify the faucet base, rubber gasket, metal washer, mounting nut and threaded shank before installation.
Faucet Base & Deck Interface
Shows the faucet base seated at the countertop surface and establishes the primary above-deck interface for alignment, sealing and mechanical stability.
Rubber Gasket
Identifies the gasket positioned beneath the faucet base. Proper seating helps stabilize the fixture and reduces moisture migration around the mounting opening.
Metal Washer
Shows the washer beneath the gasket and countertop interface, distributing clamping force and providing a stable bearing surface for the mounting nut.
Mounting Nut
Identifies the retaining nut that secures the faucet assembly to the threaded shank. Tighten evenly to prevent movement without overstressing the countertop.
Threaded Shank
Shows the structural threaded section passing below the deck. Adequate thread engagement should remain available after accounting for the full countertop thickness.
Countertop Thickness
Identifies a maximum countertop thickness of 51 mm (2.0 in.) in the illustrated condition. Final compatibility should be verified with the actual deck build-up.
Installed Side View
Shows the completed assembly beneath the countertop, including the secured mounting hardware and routed hot and cold supply hoses.
Engineering note:
Mounting details are provided for installation and coordination reference.
Confirm countertop thickness, mounting-hole requirements, gasket placement,
mounting hardware, threaded-shank engagement, supply connections and under-counter
clearances against the current approved FontanaShowers product documentation
before drilling or installation. Do not scale dimensions from the drawing.
Architectural and Plumbing Coordination Considerations
Countertop Compatibility
Verify that the countertop material and total thickness are compatible with the faucet mounting assembly and allow sufficient threaded-shank engagement.
Mounting-Hole Preparation
Coordinate the mounting opening with the faucet base, sink geometry and approved drilling dimensions before countertop fabrication or field drilling.
Watertight Interface
Seat the rubber gasket evenly so the faucet base bears uniformly on the countertop and the mounting area remains properly sealed.
Fastening Access
Maintain adequate clearance beneath the countertop for installing and tightening the washer and mounting nut with standard tools.
Supply-Hose Clearance
Route the hot and cold hoses below the threaded shank without kinks, pinching, abrasion or interference with the drain assembly.
Final Stability Check
After tightening, confirm the faucet remains aligned and rigid at the countertop and that all under-counter components remain accessible for service.

Professional Engineering and Accessibility References
Project verification:
Mounting hardware cross-section drawings are coordination tools and do not replace
approved project submittals. The architect, plumbing engineer, countertop fabricator,
contractor and qualified installer should verify countertop thickness, mounting-hole
requirements, gasket placement, washer and nut installation, threaded-shank engagement,
supply-hose routing, accessibility criteria and locally adopted codes before fabrication
or installation.
