Marks USA 195RSB Communicating Classroom Clutched Lever Lockset — Small Format IC, Less Core, Grade 1
The Marks USA 195RSB is a commercial-grade communicating classroom clutched lever lockset from the 195 Series, engineered for demanding institutional environments where durability and long-term performance are essential. Built on a cylindrical chassis with cast retractors on bronze roller bearings, this lockset features a unique stainless steel clutch mechanism that disengages the levers from the retractor when locked, eliminating lever droop and dramatically reducing wear. Rated to exceed BHMA Grade 1 specifications by 300% — over 3.6 million cycles — and carrying a 3-Hour Fire Rating, the 195RSB is designed for doors with a thickness of 1-5/8" to 1-7/8" and supports both 2-3/8" and 2-3/4" backsets. The Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) configuration ships less core for maximum keying flexibility.
