The Sargent 68-4697 is a genuine OEM Narrow Rail Assembly designed as a direct replacement component for Sargent 80 Series exit devices. Also referenced by the configuration code 12-53-55-56 J, this assembly carries the J rail stock size designation, meaning it is engineered to fit doors ranging from 37 inches to 42 inches in width.
