Is expired body armor still good?
Wearing your vest, exposing it to the elements, or even just storing it for years can cause the ballistic fibers or plates to break down. This doesn’t mean your armor suddenly “stops working” the day after it expires, but it does mean that its protective capabilities may be compromised when you need them most. The majority of NIJ-certified body armor vests can maintain their ballistic capabilities for a minimum of five years. There are some Dyneema body armor vests that have a ten-year ballistic capability. When you’re ready to buy, the best thing you can do is some research into the different models.We do know that in “normal” duty use, and without being exposed to extreme environmental factors, the armor will be effective for 5 years in the case of soft armor and 7-8 years in the case of ceramic and PE armor.
Do body armors expire?
Note: Different types of ballistic armor have different lengths before expiring. Steel core armor plates usually have a shelf life of 20-years, whereas ceramic and composite usually have a shelf life of only 5-years. That is something to consider before purchasing.
