Description
The MS21105-16 is a genuine Textron Aviation clamp — a fastening or retaining hardware item used in the airframe. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
Aircraft hardware is called out to a specific specification for each location; an off-the-shelf equivalent is rarely acceptable. Part numbers can supersede over time, so verify the current applicable number for your airframe's serial and configuration before installation.
The value of an OEM part is as much in its paperwork and pedigree as its metal — both of which an aircraft's records require. Because interchangeability rules can apply, confirm the exact applicable part for your configuration in the IPC before installation.
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.
An unapproved or surplus substitute can introduce fit, material, or paperwork problems that surface at the next inspection; the genuine part avoids that risk. Fitting the correct factory part the first time avoids the rework, removal, and re-inspection that an incorrect or unapproved part can trigger.
The company behind this part, Textron Aviation, builds and sustains the Cessna Citation, Beechcraft King Air, Bonanza, and Baron families from its home in Wichita, Kansas.
