Description
The S1106D3 is a genuine Textron Aviation rod end — a linkage member carrying motion through a control run. It fits the Skyhawk.
Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the S1106D3 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records.
Across the Cessna Skyhawk fleet, correctly identified factory parts like this keep every airframe consistent and configuration-correct.
Control and mechanism components transmit motion precisely, so correct geometry and fit are essential to proper rigging and system travel. The factory part is built to the manufacturer's material and dimensional specification, so it installs as designed without the surprises a generic equivalent can bring.
For a regulated aircraft component, correct identification by factory part number is what guarantees the exact form, fit, and function the design calls for. OEM parts arrive to the specification the type design was certified against, preserving both airworthiness and the airframe's documented configuration.
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. 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.
