Sargent 68-2343 Chassis Pack — 80 Series Exit Device Chassis Assembly (LHRB)

The Sargent 68-2343 is a genuine OEM Chassis Assembly (Chassis Pack) engineered for the Sargent 80 Series exit device. This core operating component serves as the mechanical heart 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. Also referenced as the 12-8866 Chassis Pack, this part is handed LHRB (Left Hand Reverse Bevel) and is fire-rated compatible, making it the correct replacement or service component for fire-rated 80 Series exit device installations.
