Description
The S2870-2 is a genuine Textron Aviation nut — a fastening or retaining hardware item used in the airframe. It is applicable to the Caravan or Grand Caravan EX, Skyhawk, Skylane, and Stationair. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the S2870-2 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.
Parts like this are shared across the Cessna Caravan, Skyhawk, Skylane, and Stationair 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. OEM parts arrive to the specification the type design was certified against, preserving both airworthiness and the airframe's documented configuration.
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.
The Cessna name is among the most recognized in aviation — founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927 and part of Textron since 1992, today a cornerstone of Textron Aviation. The Cessna Caravan is a single-engine PT6-powered utility turboprop in continuous production since 1984, valued for its rugged versatility in passenger, cargo, and float operations.
