Sargent 68-2487 Chassis Assembly for 8300 Series Exit Device — RHRB

The Sargent 68-2487 is an OEM replacement Chassis Assembly engineered for the Sargent 8300 Series exit device. Also referenced as a Chassis Pack, this component serves as the core operating mechanism within the exit device body. When the push bar (push rail) is depressed, the chassis receives that force and retracts the latch bolt, enabling controlled, code-compliant egress. Designed and manufactured to Sargent's original equipment specifications, this part restores the exit device to full factory-level performance. This listing is for the Right Hand Reverse Bevel (RHRB) hand configuration.
