Hi everyone!!
Does anyone know the PN of the 2 bolts used to connect the control wheel to the control tube? I’ve 2 rivets now but they start to be a bit loose and i have that bad feeling with my roll control.
Thank you, grazie!!

Re: Control wheel to control tube bolts
Rivets (PN 0413216 and 0413216-1) are original. They are ridiculously priced. Either tighten them up if possible…or substitute machine screws, MS27039C with a nylon stop nut, IMO.

I have used Hanson Rivet as a supplier of the semi- tubular rivets used in the control wheels of Cessnas. They also carry the mandrel to properly upset the tail of the rivet.
