Sargent 25-O Regular Arm for 1431, 351 & 281 Door Closers
The Sargent 25-O Regular Arm is a forged steel closer arm engineered as a direct-fit replacement or upgrade component for Sargent 1431, 351 Powerglide, and 281 Series surface-mounted door closers. Non-handed by design, this arm installs on standard pull-side (hinge-side) closer applications without the need to specify left- or right-hand orientation — making it a practical choice for facility managers, commercial contractors, and purchasing agents sourcing replacement closer parts.
Key Features & Benefits
- Forged steel construction — provides lasting durability in high-cycle commercial door environments
- Non-handed — universal fit; no handing required at time of order or installation
- 120° door opening with standard pull-side mounting — suitable for the majority of commercial corridor and office door openings
- Up to 180° door opening possible with alternate mounting position or use of a compatible corner bracket — maximizes traffic flow in high-occupancy areas
- Three finish options to coordinate with surrounding hardware:
- EN — Aluminum Enamel
- EB — Bronze Enamel
- EAB — Brass Enamel
Compatible Door Closers
The Sargent 25-O arm is specifically designed for use with the following Sargent surface closer series:
- Sargent 351 Powerglide Series — ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1, UL Listed, adjustable size 1–6 surface closer
- Sargent 1431 Series — surface-mounted closer for standard commercial applications
- Sargent 281 Series — robust surface closer for a wide range of door applications
When replacing a worn or damaged arm on any of the above closer bodies, verify the existing closer model before ordering to ensure proper fit and function.
Application Guidance
The 25-O is a standard (O-type) regular arm — the most common arm configuration for pull-side, hinge-side closer installations. Per DHI and closer manufacturer guidance, standard-arm applications are the most efficient mounting position for power and closing control on interior doors. The arm connects the closer body (mounted on the door face) to the door frame, controlling both sweep speed and final latching action.
For installations requiring the door to open beyond 120°, an alternate mounting position or a corner bracket accessory allows up to 180° swing. This is particularly useful in high-traffic areas such as corridors, loading areas, and accessible routes where maximum door clearance is required.
Note: For fire-rated openings, ensure the complete door closer assembly (body plus arm) remains UL/cUL listed and that no hold-open features are introduced where prohibited by NFPA 80 or local code.
