BEARING

The MS21240-06C16 is a genuine Textron Aviation bearing — a low-friction pivot or rotational support in an assembly. It is applicable to the Citation CJ1 or CJ1+, Citation CJ2 or CJ2+, Citation CJ3, CJ3+, CJ3+ Gen 2, CJ3 Gen 3, Citation M2, M2 Gen 2, M2 Gen 3, and Citation V, Ultra, Encore or Encore+. It carries an export classification of ECCN 2A991. As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the MS21240-06C16 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 Citation aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants. Fit and load rating define a bearing's job, so matching the specified part protects both function and service life. Using the factory part number preserves configuration control, so the airframe stays consistent with its approved type design and the work is straightforward to sign off at inspection. 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. Cessna's Citation line, launched with the Model 500 in the early 1970s, grew into the best-selling business-jet family in the world, spanning today from the light M2 to the super-midsize Longitude.
