Description
The S2418-1 is a genuine Textron Aviation ring scraper nose gear supplied for use on the aircraft, with its precise function defined by the aircraft's parts data. It is applicable to the Skyhawk and Skylane. It carries an export classification of ECCN EAR99, weighs 0.01 lbs, and measures 2.25 (L) x 2.25 (W) x 0.2 (H) in.
As an original-equipment (OEM) part supplied directly by Textron Aviation, the S2418-1 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.
Because the Cessna Skyhawk and Skylane aircraft share extensive structure and hardware, a single part like this is often common across several variants.
As a factory-supplied item for a type-certificated aircraft, this part is defined by the manufacturer's specification and applicability data. Sourcing the OEM part protects the airframe's configuration and keeps its service history consistent, which matters for both airworthiness and resale value.
An unapproved or surplus substitute can introduce fit, material, or paperwork problems that surface at the next inspection; the genuine part avoids that risk.
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. 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.
