Description
The NAS682A3 is a genuine Textron Aviation nut — a fastening or retaining hardware item used in the airframe. It is fitted to the Baron Series B55, E55, 58 or G58, Bonanza 36, Bonanza F33, G33, F33A or F33C, Caravan or Grand Caravan EX, King Air 100, Skyhawk, and Skylane. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99.
Because the NAS682A3 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.
Because the Beechcraft Baron, Beechcraft Bonanza, Cessna Caravan, Beechcraft King Air, Cessna Skyhawk, and Cessna Skylane aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
Aircraft hardware is called out to a specific specification for each location; an off-the-shelf equivalent is rarely acceptable. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation.
Both the Cessna and Beechcraft lines are supported today by Textron Aviation, formed in 2014 to unite the two historic Wichita manufacturers with Hawker. The Beechcraft Baron, introduced in 1961 as a twin-engine development of the Bonanza, carried Beechcraft's reputation for solid handling into a capable light twin.
