Von Duprin 050650 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Von Duprin exit devices does the 050650 top rod kit fit?
The 050650 one piece top rod is made for Von Duprin 3327A, 9927 and 9957 Series vertical rod exit devices. Those are the surface vertical rod models in the 33/99 family, so if your device latches at the head and the sill with exposed rods on the door face, this is the top rod side of that assembly. It is not a part for rim or mortise devices.
2) I have a 10 foot door opening. Will an 8 foot top rod work?
The 050650 ships as an 8 foot one piece rod, sized for tall door applications on 3327A, 9927 and 9957 devices. Rods are cut to suit the actual door height during install, so an 8 foot rod covers openings up to that reach but will not stretch further. For a door taller than what an 8 foot rod can span, you need the longer rod kit for the series, not this one.
3) Can I use this top rod kit on a fire rated exit device?
No. The 050650 top rod kit carries a fire rating of No, so it should not be used to service a labeled fire exit hardware assembly. Fire rated openings need the fire-rated rod components specified for that device, and substituting a non-rated part can void the label on the door.
4) Is the Falcon 610061 vertical top rod a substitute for the Von Duprin 050650 top rod kit?
No. The Falcon 610061 is a concealed vertical top rod for Falcon 24 Series Monarch F-25-C and F-25-CWDC exit devices, so it is built to Falcon's concealed vertical rod geometry. The Von Duprin 050650 one piece top rod kit is an 8 foot rod made for Von Duprin 3327A, 9927, and 9957 Series exit devices. The two are not interchangeable across brands - match the rod to the device chassis already on the door.
5) I have a pair of doors with no vertical rods - do I need the 050650?
No. The Von Duprin 050650 is a top rod for vertical rod exit devices in the 3327A, 9927, and 9957 Series. A double door pair running rim devices is held instead by a mullion, such as the Falcon 4023 steel mullion for double door exit device applications, with Falcon 525 aluminum mullion stabilizers used on mullion installations. Choose between a vertical rod device and a rim-plus-mullion arrangement based on what is on the opening.
6) Is this a surface rod or a concealed vertical rod part?
The 050650 is the top rod for Von Duprin 3327A, 9927 and 9957 surface vertical rod devices, meaning the rod runs on the face of the door rather than inside it. If your door has concealed rods hidden in the stile, this part does not apply. For a concealed top rod on a different brand, ZenSupply carries the Falcon 610061 24 Series Monarch concealed vertical top rod for F-25-C and F-25-CWDC devices.
7) Is the 050650 rated for a busy commercial building?
It is a Grade 1 commercial part, which is the highest ANSI/BHMA performance tier and the level specified for high-traffic openings in schools, hospitals, offices and government buildings. That matches the duty of the 33/99 Series devices it serves.
8) My exit device won't latch at the top. Do I need a new rod or a new top latch?
If the rod is bent, binding or the wrong length after a door swap, the 050650 one piece top rod is the replacement for 3327A, 9927 and 9957 devices. If the rod travels correctly but the latch itself is worn or not holding, that is a top latch assembly, a separate component. ZenSupply carries top latch replacement components for other devices as well, such as the Accentra parts for 7110/7120.
9) Do I need a mullion if I'm using a vertical rod device on a pair of doors?
No. Vertical rod devices like the 3327A, 9927 and 9957 latch into the head frame and the threshold, so a pair of doors can be secured without a center mullion, which is the reason these devices get specified for wide openings. Rim devices are the ones that need a mullion on a pair, and for that ZenSupply stocks the Falcon 4023 steel mullion.
10) Does the 050650 kit include the bottom rod too?
No, the 050650 is the top rod only. On a 3327A, 9927 or 9957 surface vertical rod device the bottom rod and bottom latch are ordered separately, so if you are rebuilding a full assembly plan on both halves plus the strikes at head and sill.
11) My exit device only needs the top latch replaced, not the rod. What should I look at instead?
If the rod itself is sound and the latch at the head is the failed part, a rod kit is not the right order. On Accentra 7110/7120 devices the top latch replacement component is 60-7010-0049-999, and for the fire rated 7110F it is 60-7010-0050-999. The Von Duprin 050650 is the rod itself, an 8 foot one piece top rod for 3327A, 9927, and 9957 Series devices, so order it when the rod is bent, cut short, or missing.
12) Can I use the Von Duprin 050650 top rod kit on a fire rated opening?
The Von Duprin 050650 one piece top rod kit carries a Fire Rating value of No, as does the Accentra 7110/7120 top latch component 60-7010-0049-999. Where the device on the opening is a fire exit device, the Accentra 7110F top latch component 60-7010-0050-999 is the part tied to that fire rated chassis. Confirm the label requirements on the door before selecting any vertical rod component.
13) What finishes does the Von Duprin 050650 top rod come in?
Four finishes: 626 satin chrome, 628 aluminum, 606 satin brass and 710 dark bronze. Pick the one that matches the device chassis and end case already on the door, since the rod runs the full face of the door and a mismatch is obvious from across the lobby.
14) What finishes does the Von Duprin 050650 top rod kit come in, and do comparable exit device parts offer the same range?
The Von Duprin 050650 one piece top rod kit is offered in 626 satin chrome, 628 aluminum, 606 satin brass, and 710 dark bronze, which lets the rod be matched to the exit device already installed. Comparable exit device replacement components such as the Accentra 7110/7120 top latch part 60-7010-0049-999 and the Falcon 610061 concealed vertical top rod are specified by device series rather than by a published finish range, so selection there follows the chassis.
15) Is a rim cylinder housing like the Arrow 16RCR-27 part of a vertical rod repair?
No. The Arrow 16RCR-27 is an SFIC rim housing for 6/7-pin small format cores in the Arrow 24/25 Series - a cylinder component for keyed outside control. The Von Duprin 050650 is the mechanical 8 foot top rod that drives the top latch on 3327A, 9927, and 9957 Series devices. They address different parts of the opening, so a rod problem is not solved by a cylinder housing.
16) The latch bolt in my exit device is worn, not the rod. Which part covers that?
A worn deadlatch or latch bolt is a separate component from the vertical rod. On Falcon T Series hardware the 2-3/8 inch square corner deadlatch replacement part is 23981160. The Von Duprin 050650 addresses the rod that transmits panic bar motion to the top latch on 3327A, 9927, and 9957 Series devices, and it is supplied as an installation accessory rather than a latch assembly.
