Why Replace Your Helmet's Suspension
The suspension is the part of the helmet that absorbs the energy of an impact and ensures daily wearing comfort. Over time, it accumulates sebum, hair and perspiration, and its components wear out. The manufacturer recommends replacing the suspension annually — replacing the suspension rather than the whole helmet is often economical when the shell is still in good condition.
Maintenance and Service Life
According to the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety, one shall never draw the chin strap over the brim or peak of the headwear. The CSA Z94.1-15 standard recommends inspecting and cleaning the helmet and its suspension daily, with lukewarm water and a mild soap (dish soap). The suspension should be inspected and washed daily to remove sebum, hair and perspiration. The manufacturer recommends replacing it annually.
