Description
The 0553045-4 is a genuine Textron Aviation right-hand fuel strainer hand bracket — a support fitting that secures or positions a component in the airframe. It is applicable to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the 0553045-4 is built to the aircraft maker's specification and cross-references the type design as documented in the maintenance data. Choosing the genuine part over an unapproved substitute preserves configuration control and simplifies inspection sign-offs.
Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Skyhawk aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
A support or bracket component holds a system or structure in its correct place, so the right part preserves alignment and clearance. OEM parts arrive to the specification the type design was certified against, preserving both airworthiness and the airframe's documented configuration.
For a regulated aircraft component, correct identification by factory part number is what guarantees the exact form, fit, and function the design calls for. An unapproved or surplus substitute can introduce fit, material, or paperwork problems that surface at the next inspection; the genuine part avoids that risk.
The Cessna name is among the most recognized in aviation — founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927 and part of Textron since 1992, today a cornerstone of Textron Aviation. 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.
