Description
The 0513038-13 is a genuine Textron Aviation tunnel reinforcement angle — a formed structural piece used to join, reinforce, or support airframe components. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991, weighs 0.19 pounds, and measures 19.55 (L) x 1.05 (W) x 0.85 (H) Inches.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the 0513038-13 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 Skyhawk aircraft, reflecting how much structure and hardware these models have in common.
Structural parts like this carry and transfer loads through the airframe, so exact form and fit are essential to preserving the design's strength and fatigue life. On a certificated airframe, part provenance matters as much as the part itself; genuine factory sourcing settles that question up front.
Genuine factory parts carry the documentation and traceability that maintenance and airworthiness records depend on — assurance a look-alike substitute cannot provide. Because aircraft parts are governed by strict airworthiness and traceability rules, fitting the OEM part rather than an unapproved equivalent keeps the installation eligible and the aircraft's records clean.
Built by Textron Aviation, whose Cessna line was founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927 and joined Textron in 1992, this part carries one of general aviation's most storied names. With over 44,000 built, the Cessna Skyhawk is the best-selling aircraft ever made and is still produced today.
