Description
The MS21245L7 is a genuine Textron Aviation nut used to fasten, secure, or retain components during assembly of the airframe. It is fitted to the Caravan or Grand Caravan EX and Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99.
Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the MS21245L7 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records.
Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Caravan 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. Genuine factory parts carry the documentation and traceability that maintenance and airworthiness records depend on — assurance a look-alike substitute cannot provide.
Fitting the correct factory part the first time avoids the rework, removal, and re-inspection that an incorrect or unapproved part can trigger. An unapproved or surplus substitute can introduce fit, material, or paperwork problems that surface at the next inspection; the genuine part avoids that risk.
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. Cessna's single-engine Caravan turboprop, in production since 1984, is one of the most widely used utility aircraft in the world.
