Sargent 68-4100 Chassis Assembly for AL-12-8863 & GL-12-8863 80 Series Exit Devices — RHR

The Sargent 68-4100 is a genuine OEM Chassis Assembly engineered for the Sargent 80 Series exit device. This core operating component sits at the heart of the exit device mechanism: when the push bar is depressed, the push rail transfers force directly to this chassis, which in turn retracts the latch bolt to permit egress. Because the device-model prefix carries life-safety significance — AL- (Alarmed), 12- (Fire-Rated), and GL- (Guarded Latch) — the 68-4100 is precision-matched to specific fully-designated model numbers and is not interchangeable across different prefix configurations. This part is handed Right Hand Reverse (RHR).

Institutional-Grade Features & Benefits

• Genuine Sargent OEM Component: Factory-engineered to exact tolerances for the 80 Series exit device, ensuring proper mechanical engagement, reliable latch retraction, and maintained life-safety compliance.
• Life-Safety Prefix Specificity: The 68-4100 is validated for use in Alarmed (AL-) and Fire-Rated (12-) and Guarded Latch (GL-) exit device configurations — prefix compatibility must be verified before installation.
• Fire-Rated Application Ready: Designed for use within exit devices carrying the 12- fire-rated designation, supporting compliance in rated-corridor, stairwell, and other life-safety door assemblies.
• Alarmed Exit Device Support: Compatible with AL- prefix models, which incorporate an integral door alarm — maintaining chassis integrity is essential to the alarm circuit and egress function operating correctly together.
• Guarded Latch Compatibility: Also validated for GL- prefix models, where the guarded latch prevents unintended latch retraction from tool manipulation or card shimming.
• Correct Handing for Reliable Operation: Supplied as Right Hand Reverse (RHR) — specify handing carefully to ensure proper chassis orientation and latch mechanics within the door assembly.
• Simplified Maintenance & Repair: Replacing a worn or damaged chassis assembly with the correct OEM part restores full exit device functionality without the cost of replacing the entire device, minimizing downtime in occupied facilities.

Compatible 80 Series Exit Device Models

The Sargent 68-4100 Chassis Assembly (RHR) is compatible with the following fully-designated Sargent 80 Series exit device models. The complete model prefix is required — partial model matches are not sufficient for life-safety hardware:

• AL-12-8863 — Alarmed, Fire-Rated 80 Series Exit Device
• GL-12-8863 — Guarded Latch, Fire-Rated 80 Series Exit Device
