Description
The S1023A6-12J is a genuine Textron Aviation screw — a fastening or retaining hardware item used in the airframe. It is fitted to the Skyhawk and Skylane. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the S1023A6-12J 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 Skyhawk and Skylane aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
Strength grade and finish define aircraft hardware, so matching the specified part keeps the joint as designed. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation.
On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front. Fitting the correct factory part the first time avoids the rework, removal, and re-inspection that an incorrect or unapproved part can trigger.
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 Cessna 172 Skyhawk is the most-produced aircraft in history, with more than 44,000 built since 1956, and remains in production under Textron Aviation.
