Sargent 68-2306 Chassis Pack — 8828 Exit Device Chassis Assembly (RHRB)

The Sargent 68-2306 is a factory-replacement Chassis Assembly designed for the Sargent 80 Series exit device, specifically compatible with the 8828 exit device model. This OEM chassis pack serves as the core operating mechanism of the exit device: when the push bar is depressed, the push rail transfers that force directly to this chassis, which retracts the latch bolt to permit egress. Stocking this part ensures fast, cost-effective restoration of a malfunctioning or worn exit device without full device replacement. Handing is RHRB (see handing diagram).

Institutional Grade Features & Benefits

• OEM Sargent Replacement: Genuine Sargent factory component engineered to original tolerances for precise fit and reliable cycle performance in the 80 Series platform.
• Core Egress Mechanism: Functions as the heart of the exit device — receives push-rail force and drives latch retraction for dependable, code-compliant egress operation.
• Targeted Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the Sargent 8828 exit device, eliminating guesswork and reducing the risk of misfit during service or retrofit.
• Extends Device Service Life: Replacing a worn or damaged chassis pack restores full exit device function at a fraction of the cost of a complete device replacement, minimizing downtime in commercial, institutional, and life-safety applications.
• Correct Handing Matters: Supplied in RHRB handing to ensure proper mechanical alignment and latch engagement for the specified door configuration.
• Supports Life-Safety Compliance: Keeping exit devices in proper working order is essential for compliance with NFPA 101 Life Safety Code and IBC egress requirements — a correctly functioning chassis is central to that performance.
