Sargent 68-6013 Chassis Assembly for 8400 Series Exit Device — LHRB
The Sargent 68-6013 is a genuine OEM chassis assembly engineered for the Sargent 8400 Series exit device. Also referenced as the 8400 Chassis Assembly (1/4" Clad, LHRB), this core operating component is the mechanical heart of the 8400 Series panic hardware. When the push bar is depressed, the push rail transfers that force directly to this chassis, which retracts the latch bolt to allow safe and immediate egress. Specified for Left Hand Reverse Bevel (LHRB) door applications, this chassis assembly is a precision-fit, factory-authorized replacement that restores full exit device function without compromising life-safety performance.
Institutional Grade Features & Benefits
- Genuine Sargent OEM Component: Factory-manufactured to exact tolerances for the 8400 Series, ensuring reliable, code-compliant egress performance every cycle.
- Core Latch-Retraction Mechanism: Directly receives push-rail force and drives latch retraction — the critical action that allows single-motion emergency egress on panic hardware-equipped doors.
- 1/4" Clad Construction: Designed to the 1/4" clad specification, ensuring proper fit within the exit device chassis pocket and correct alignment with latch bolt and push rail components.
- LHRB Handing: Configured specifically for Left Hand Reverse Bevel door installations — verify door hand before ordering.
- 80 Series Platform Compatibility: Engineered within Sargent's proven 80 Series exit device platform, maintaining interchangeability and serviceability with the broader 8400 device family.
- Restores Full Exit Device Operation: A worn or damaged chassis is a common cause of push-bar failure; replacing with this OEM assembly returns the device to original operating specification.
- Ideal for Maintenance & Retrofit: Suitable for facility maintenance teams, locksmiths, and door hardware professionals performing in-field exit device repairs on commercial and institutional openings.
