Cessna Cowlings – Skybolt has 25 years of experience in aviation fasteners. In the 1980s, we developed one of the first conversion kits (using two of our own C172s) to address the problems with J7444 mount cowlings on C150, C172, C177, and some C182 airplanes. We continued to improve on the design features with emphasis on installation efficiencies and product performance. Today, having installed over 100 kits at our facility in Leesburg, and supporting over 3000 kits installed since 1987, Skybolt continues to refine every kit to make the SK2800 and SK203 Series Conversion Kits better. Skybolt designed the SK2003-AW Alignment Washer to allow precise alignment of mount to cowling hole. The Skybolt alignment template eliminates any guesswork in the initial installation of mounts. See a similar kit advertised? It is obvious; someone copied the other. Rest assured, the copy kit is 2 to 3 generations behind the Skybolt kit without the field experience to back it up. These kits alter your aircraft. Confidence in your supplier is worth far more than a discount.

The Skybolt C2800 Series Kits convert screw cowlings to the CLoc® SK28S3 Fastener. New for 2007 is the SK213-36 Adjustable Receptacle that makes this installation easier than ever.
