Sargent 68-5448 Chassis Assembly for 80 Series Exit Device — RHR

The Sargent 68-5448 is a genuine OEM chassis assembly engineered for the Sargent 80 Series exit device. Also referenced as the 53-PP, PR, SP chassis assembly, this is the core operating mechanism that makes the exit device function: when the push bar is pressed, the push rail transfers force to this chassis, which retracts the latch to allow egress. This is a right-hand reverse (RHR) handing replacement part, purpose-built to restore your 80 Series exit device to original factory performance.

Institutional-Grade Features & Benefits

• OEM Sargent Replacement Part: Manufactured to original Sargent specifications, ensuring a precise, drop-in fit within the 80 Series exit device without modification or field adaptation.
• Core Egress Mechanism: Functions as the heart of the exit device — receives force from the push rail when the push bar is depressed and actuates latch retraction for reliable, code-compliant egress.
• Restores Device to Factory Performance: Replacing a worn or damaged chassis assembly returns the exit device to its original operating standard, extending overall device service life and maintaining consistent latching and egress action.
• RHR Handing: Configured specifically for right-hand reverse applications; a handing diagram accompanies the listing for reference.
• Designed for Commercial & Institutional Environments: The 80 Series is a widely deployed exit device in schools, hospitals, government facilities, and commercial buildings — this chassis supports ongoing maintenance and repair programs for facilities managers and locksmiths.
• Reduces Downtime: Stocking genuine Sargent chassis assemblies minimizes door hardware downtime and avoids costly full-device replacement when only the internal mechanism requires service.
