Description
The C253001-0102 is a genuine Textron Aviation door lock assembly — a covering that encloses or provides access to part of the airframe. It fits the Caravan or Grand Caravan EX, Skyhawk, Skylane, and Stationair. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99.
Supplied directly by Textron Aviation as an original-equipment (OEM) part, the C253001-0102 meets the manufacturer's specification and keeps the aircraft configuration-correct, with clean traceability in the maintenance records.
Across the Cessna Caravan, Skyhawk, Skylane, and Stationair fleet, correctly identified factory parts like this keep every airframe consistent and configuration-correct.
A covering part like this is contoured to the structure, so the right one maintains both fit and the smooth external surface. 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.
Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation. 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 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.
