Sargent 68-2444 Chassis Assembly for 8866 80 Series Exit Device — RHR

The Sargent 68-2444 is a genuine OEM chassis assembly engineered for the Sargent 80 Series exit device, specifically compatible with the 8866 model. Designed for right-hand reverse (RHR) applications, this core operating component serves as the mechanical heart of the exit device. When the push bar is depressed, the push rail transfers force directly to this chassis assembly, which retracts the latch to allow immediate, code-compliant egress. Replacing or restoring this assembly with a genuine Sargent part ensures reliable, consistent performance in demanding commercial and institutional door hardware applications.
