Sargent 422 Series Cam Action Door Closer - Push or Pull Side - Hold Open and Non Hold Open Options

The SARGENT 422 is a revolutionary door closer that provides unheard of performance in track arm applications. The dual piston cam design provides high efficiency and smooth operation with the clean appearance of a track arm.

Conventional door closers are restricted by the linear gear ratio of the rack and pinion. This results in a constant application of spring force as the door opens and closes. While this is very effective in double lever arm applications, single lever track arm applications have limitations.

The shape of the cam is the heart of the cam action door closer. The cam controls the application of the spring forces and is carefully designed to apply those forces in the most effective manner for track type applications.

The SARGENT 422 closer has the highest efficiency of any surface mounted door closer on the market today. This means that a door equipped with this closer will feel light to open and have plenty of power to overcome stack pressure or other problems at latch.

The high efficiency of the 422 comes from its advanced design. Closing forces are applied to the spindle through the continuous smooth surface of the cam and hardened roller bearing follower. The dual pistons’ simplified design provides a superior internal seal and reduced friction within the close
