Description
The 0501081-3 is a genuine Textron Aviation clip used to fasten, secure, or retain components during assembly of the airframe. It is applicable to the Skyhawk and Skylane. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
Because the 0501081-3 is an original-equipment (OEM) part sourced directly from Textron Aviation, it matches the exact specification and placement called out in the aircraft's type design and maintenance data — assurance a generic substitute cannot offer.
Across the Cessna Skyhawk and Skylane fleet, correctly identified factory parts like this keep every airframe consistent and configuration-correct.
Fastening and retaining hardware may look simple, but grade, size, and finish are specified for the joint each secures — the correct part matters. Because substitutions on type-certificated aircraft require approved data, the genuine part is the straightforward, compliant choice for this application.
Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value. Traceable OEM hardware keeps an aircraft's maintenance records defensible at annual, pre-purchase, and pre-buy inspections.
On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front.
Built by Textron Aviation, whose Cessna line was founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927 and joined Textron in 1992, this part carries one of general aviation's most storied names. With over 44,000 built, the Cessna Skyhawk is the best-selling aircraft ever made and is still produced today.
