The square steel bar connecting the two handles through the lock's gearbox. Spindles come solid, split (two-part, letting each handle work independently) and slotted — and a sheared or slipping spindle is a classic cause of a handle that turns without moving the latch.
A split spindle separates the outside handle from the latch so the door locks behind you on closing — outside access needs the key even without lifting the handle. Common on composite front doors; replace like for like or the locking behaviour changes.
Often, yes — the sprung cassette behind the handle does the returning, and replacements restore the action without buying full handles. Match the cassette to your handle pattern, or simply fit new handles if the finish is tired anyway.
