Sargent 68-2524 Chassis Assembly for 12-8300 80 Series Exit Device — LHRB

The Sargent 68-2524 is a factory-replacement chassis assembly designed for the Sargent 80 Series exit device. Also referenced as the 12-8300 chassis pack, this component is the core operating mechanism that makes the exit device function: when an occupant depresses the push bar, the push rail transfers that force directly to this chassis, which retracts the latch bolt and allows immediate egress. Sourced as a genuine Sargent OEM replacement part, the 68-2524 restores original, factory-spec operation to a worn or damaged 80 Series device without requiring full device replacement. This listing is for the Left Hand Reverse Bevel (LHRB) hand configuration.
