Sargent 97-0156 Thumb Piece Pivot Pin - Package of 4

The Sargent 97-0156 is a genuine OEM Thumb Piece Pivot Pin engineered specifically for the Sargent 828-PTB exit device trim. This precision-machined pin serves as the mechanical axis for the thumbpiece lever, allowing it to pivot smoothly and actuate the internal exit device linkage. Because the thumbpiece is a high-load touch point, maintaining a straight, un-pitted pivot pin is vital for preventing trim failure and ensuring ADA-compliant operation. Sold in a package of 4, these pins are the professional standard for maintaining high-traffic exterior entrances.

Institutional Grade Features

• Trim-Specific Engineering: Specifically designed to fit the housing and lever tolerances of the Sargent 828-PTB (Pull-Thumbpiece) trim.
• Precision Pivot Logic: Provides a low-friction fulcrum point that ensures the thumbpiece returns to the neutral position without "sticking" or "binding."
• Direct OEM Replacement: Identified as Part #7 in Sargent technical illustrations, ensuring a factory-perfect fit that eliminates the "slop" or rattling found with generic hardware.
• High-Strength Steel: Manufactured from hardened alloys to resist the shear forces and mechanical wear associated with thousands of daily entrance cycles.
• Corrosion Resistant: Built to withstand environmental exposure on exterior-facing doors in schools, hospitals, and commercial storefronts.
