Description
The 0523816-1 is a genuine Textron Aviation hinge assembly used to hinge, latch, or operate a door, panel, or access point. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 0.10 pounds, and measures 8.9 (L) x 1.5 (W) x 0.15 (H) Inches.
Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the 0523816-1 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records.
Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
Because it carries motion through a system, the exact part preserves the geometry the design depends on. Because substitutions on type-certificated aircraft require approved data, the genuine part is the straightforward, compliant choice for this application.
On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front. Because aircraft parts are governed by strict airworthiness and traceability rules, fitting the OEM part rather than an unapproved equivalent keeps the installation eligible and the aircraft's records clean.
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.
