Description
The 217-00100 is a genuine Textron Aviation grommet used to keep a joint or pass-through tight. It fits the Baron Series B55, E55, 58 or G58, Bonanza 36, Bonanza F33, G33, F33A or F33C, Skyhawk, and Skylane. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the 217-00100 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 Beechcraft Baron, Beechcraft Bonanza, Cessna Skyhawk, and Cessna Skylane aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
Material and dimensions make a seal work; the correct factory part is what keeps the joint from leaking in service. OEM parts arrive to the specification the type design was certified against, preserving both airworthiness and the airframe's documented configuration.
Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated.
Both the Cessna and Beechcraft lines are supported today by Textron Aviation, formed in 2014 to unite the two historic Wichita manufacturers with Hawker. The Beechcraft Baron, introduced in 1961 as a twin-engine development of the Bonanza, carried Beechcraft's reputation for solid handling into a capable light twin.
