Simplex 2099-9804 — replacement break-rod, the consumable rod that breaks when a Simplex manual station lever is pulled.
A break-rod is supplied with the station and its use is optional. When fitted, completing the pull breaks an internal rod that is then visible below the lever, deterring vandalism without adding to the pull force. Resetting takes a key, and a broken rod must then be replaced.

It is not 2099-9803, the replacement breakglass for double action breakglass stations. The cast metal 2099 Series is a separate line with its own accessory: 2099-9829, twelve replacement break rods, for stations such as 2099-9138, and that line has no breakglass option.
