BULKHEAD

The 0513502-2 is a genuine Textron Aviation bulkhead that serves as a load-carrying member of the airframe structure. It is applicable to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 1.4 pounds, and measures 41 (L) x 12.38 (W) x 2.5 (H) Inches. Because the 0513502-2 is an original-equipment (OEM) structural component from Textron Aviation, it is built to the airframe manufacturer's specification and matches the type design as documented. Fitting the genuine part preserves the wing or airframe's engineered strength and keeps installation and inspection records clean. Because the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants. Structural parts like this carry and transfer loads through the airframe, so exact form and fit are essential to preserving the design's strength and fatigue life. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation. An unapproved or surplus substitute can introduce fit, material, or paperwork problems that surface at the next inspection; the genuine part avoids that risk. 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. The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is the most-produced aircraft in history, with more than 44,000 built since 1956, and remains in production under Textron Aviation.
