Hi, I have purchased a round aluminum sink on line to install in my trailer, now I have found out that there are no clips in this sink.  This is a 10" round sink.  I know this maybe a silly question, but are they supposed to be there?  There were no instructions included and I am now wondering if this is a defect.  Will caulk alone hold the sink in place?

Thanks  Joan
