Description
The 1270101-5 is a genuine Textron Aviation support strap — a support fitting that secures or positions a component in the airframe. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
Because the 1270101-5 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 fleet, correctly identified factory parts like this keep every airframe consistent and configuration-correct.
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.
On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front. Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated.
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.
