Description
The CF is a genuine Textron Aviation kit bolt — a fastening or retaining hardware item used in the airframe. It is fitted to the Caravan or Grand Caravan EX, Citation CJ1 or CJ1+, Citation CJ2 or CJ2+, Citation CJ3, CJ3+, CJ3+ Gen 2, CJ3 Gen 3, Citation CJ4, CJ4 Gen 2, CJ4 Gen 3, Citation Excel, XLS, XLS+, XLS Gen 2, Citation III, VI or VII, Citation Latitude, Citation Longitude, and Citation M2, M2 Gen 2, M2 Gen 3, among other compatible variants. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the CF 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.
Because the Cessna Caravan, Citation, SkyCourier, Skyhawk, Skylane, and Stationair aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
Fastening and retaining hardware may look simple, but grade, size, and finish are specified for the joint each secures — the correct part matters.
Cessna traces to the company Clyde Cessna founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927; Textron Inc. acquired it in 1992, and since 2014 it has anchored Textron Aviation alongside Beechcraft and Hawker. The Cessna Caravan is a single-engine PT6-powered utility turboprop in continuous production since 1984, valued for its rugged versatility in passenger, cargo, and float operations.
