Description
The 0501137-2 is a genuine Textron Aviation seal used to keep a joint or pass-through tight. It is applicable to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 0.01 pounds, and measures 4 (L) x 1.65 (W) x 0.1 (H) Inches.
Because the 0501137-2 is an original-equipment (OEM) part sourced directly from Textron Aviation, it matches the exact specification and placement called out in the aircraft's type design and maintenance data — assurance a generic substitute cannot offer.
Across the Cessna Skyhawk fleet, correctly identified factory parts like this keep every airframe consistent and configuration-correct.
A seal or gasket keeps a joint tight against its service conditions; only the specified part reliably maintains that integrity. 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.
Traceable OEM hardware keeps an aircraft's maintenance records defensible at annual, pre-purchase, and pre-buy inspections. Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value.
Choosing the genuine article over an unapproved part keeps mechanics' sign-offs clean and the aircraft's configuration exactly as certificated.
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 172 Skyhawk is the most-produced aircraft in history, with more than 44,000 built since 1956, and remains in production under Textron Aviation.
