Do life jackets have expiry dates? – Vaikobi
The short answer is no. PFDs, life vests and Life Jackets do not have official expiry dates. However frequent use, wear and tear, and prolonged exposure to the elements eventually make life jackets unfit for use. Here's how to check if your life jacket needs replacing.
While life jackets don’t have expiry dates, there are several factors to consider when deciding if a PFD has reached the end of its lifespan. A life jacket that has been used every weekend for two years probably needs replacing. If you are unsure, check out the testing criteria below.
