Description
The 0531037-1 is a genuine Textron Aviation reinforcement supplied for use on the aircraft, with its precise function defined by the aircraft's parts data. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 0.29 pounds, and measures 18.45 (L) x 3.8 (W) x 1.3 (H) Inches.
Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the 0531037-1 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records.
Because the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
Supplied as a defined part in the manufacturer's catalog, its exact role is set by the aircraft's parts and maintenance data. An unapproved or surplus substitute can introduce fit, material, or paperwork problems that surface at the next inspection; the genuine part avoids that risk.
Fitting the correct factory part the first time avoids the rework, removal, and re-inspection that an incorrect or unapproved part can trigger. Because substitutions on type-certificated aircraft require approved data, the genuine part is the straightforward, compliant choice for this application.
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.
