Description
The F990033 is a genuine Textron Aviation fastener — a fastening or retaining hardware item used in the airframe. It is fitted to the Caravan or Grand Caravan EX, Citation Excel, XLS, XLS+, XLS Gen 2, Citation III, VI or VII, Citation Mustang, Citation Sovereign or Sovereign+, and Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99.
Because the F990033 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.
Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Caravan, Citation, and Skyhawk aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
Strength grade and finish define aircraft hardware, so matching the specified part keeps the joint as designed. Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated.
Because this is a component for a type-certificated aircraft, using the manufacturer's part keeps the installation within approved configuration and simplifies compliance.
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 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.
