PRODUCT FEATURES
The pull-down spray wand comes free with a gentle tug and gives you total flexibility. The hose extends and retracts without friction points, fed by gravity. As you raise the wand to dock it, the magnet embedded in the spout pulls the wand precisely into place. So, unlike other pull-downs that tend to droop over time, MagnaTite® keeps your pull-down faucet looking picture-perfect. Delta's exclusive DIAMOND Seal® Technology uses a valve with a tough diamond coating. InnoFlex® PEX waterways keep water inside the faucet out of contact with potential metal contaminants. This powerful combination brings you a faucet built to last up to five million uses. Only Delta faucets are equipped with Touch-Clean® soft, rubber nubbins that allow you to easily wipe away calcium and lime build-up with the touch of a finger.
  • MagnaTite docking keeps the kitchen pull-down spray wand firmly in place with a powerful integrated magnet, so it stays docked when not in use
  • DIAMOND Seal Technology features a valve embedded with diamonds to ensure like-new operation for the life of the faucet
  • Includes matching finish soap dispenser
  • Meets standards set by Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
  • Touch-Clean spray holes allow for easy removal of hard water build-up
  • 3-hole 6-16 in. installation
  • The high-arc, gooseneck design swivels 360 degrees with a 20-in. retractable hose for added convenience during everyday kitchen tasks
  • 3-hole installation
  • Delta MagnaTite Docking holds spray wand firmly in place

Q&A

Is this a standard stainless finish or brushed? Model 16970-SSSD-DST-R

Asked by: Gailm
Hi Gailm, Thank you for your question! Our stainless finish is a brushed finish. A neutral, low-gloss finish. Delta's Brilliance® finishes are more durable than traditional clear coating. These beautiful finishes, which give your home an instant decorator look, won't corrode, tarnish or discolor. Please contact us directly if you have any additional questions! Best Regards, Bryan Digital Communications Specialist

I have a leaking Delta kitchen faucet.  Current one has a 3-hole concept with the faucet on left, then the single hot/cold handle, then sprayer.  Can the order of this particular trio be switched to match my current one?
