Sargent 98-2506 Chassis Assembly for 80 Series Exit Device

The Sargent 98-2506 is a genuine OEM chassis assembly designed as the core operating component of the Sargent 80 Series exit device. Also referenced as the 9815 Chassis Assembly, this replacement part serves as the mechanical heart of the exit device: when the push bar is depressed, the push rail transfers force directly to this chassis, which in turn retracts the latch bolt to allow safe, controlled egress. Sourcing a factory-correct Sargent chassis assembly ensures the exit device continues to perform to its original design specification — critical in commercial, institutional, and life-safety door applications.

Institutional Grade Features & Benefits

• Genuine OEM Component: Manufactured by Sargent to exact factory tolerances, ensuring a precise fit and reliable mechanical operation within the 80 Series exit device.
• Core Latch-Retraction Mechanism: Acts as the central operating chassis — translating push-bar force through the push rail into controlled latch retraction for compliant egress.
• Drop-In Replacement: Engineered specifically for the Sargent 80 Series, eliminating guesswork and reducing installation time during service or repair.
• Restores Full Exit Device Function: Replacing a worn or damaged chassis assembly returns the exit device to proper operating condition, supporting code-compliant egress performance.
• Commercial & Institutional Durability: Built to withstand the high-cycle demands of commercial doors in schools, hospitals, office buildings, and other high-traffic facilities.

Applications
