Sargent 97-0425 Lever Return Spring | For 700 Series ET Trim
The Sargent 97-0425 (also known as the Hub Spring) is a genuine OEM replacement part engineered for the Sargent 700 Series ET (Extra Heavy Duty) Outside Trim. This high-tension spring is responsible for returning the exterior lever to the horizontal position after each use. While historically identified by a Green color coating, newer factory production features an Orange coating—both versions are functionally identical and provide the same industrial-grade performance.
