Description
The MS21288-07 is a genuine Textron Aviation bolt used to fasten, secure, or retain components during assembly of the airframe. It is applicable to the Citation Mustang. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99, weighs 0.01 lbs, and measures 0.84 (L) x 0.38 (W) x 0.38 (H) in.
Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the MS21288-07 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records.
Across the Cessna Citation fleet, correctly identified factory parts like this keep every airframe consistent and configuration-correct.
Aircraft hardware is called out to a specific specification for each location; an off-the-shelf equivalent is rarely acceptable. Traceable OEM hardware keeps an aircraft's maintenance records defensible at annual, pre-purchase, and pre-buy inspections.
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. For a regulated aircraft component, correct identification by factory part number is what guarantees the exact form, fit, and function the design calls for.
Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation.
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 Citation family is the best-selling line of business jets ever built, and more than 7,500 have been delivered worldwide.
