Description
The K38002-1 is a genuine Textron Aviation valve that controls the flow of fluid or air within an aircraft system. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
Because it handles pressurized fluid or air, a component like this is specified precisely for its service — the right part keeps the system sound. For a regulated aircraft component, correct identification by factory part number is what guarantees the exact form, fit, and function the design calls for.
Check effectivity and supersession status for your serial number so you order the currently applicable part. 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.
Applicability should always be confirmed against the aircraft's IPC and effectivity records prior to fitting the part. Using the factory part number preserves configuration control, so the airframe stays consistent with its approved type design and the work is straightforward to sign off at inspection.
Traceable OEM hardware keeps an aircraft's maintenance records defensible at annual, pre-purchase, and pre-buy inspections.
Textron Aviation carries forward the legacies of Cessna and Beechcraft — two Wichita, Kansas firms whose aircraft have defined general aviation for the better part of a century.
