How do you tell what the year of manufacture is on a carbon fiber SCBA tank? I see the DOT label but I'm not sure where to find the year/ month.
-
See it in this picture,it is on the left center of the tank label, top center of the picture. It is a 1 which is the month then a triangular symbol followed by the 03 which is the year of mfg.

Thanks for the info, that looks close to what my bottle looks like....mine has a 10 then a CL and then a 12 so I'm assuming it was made October of 2012 ?

sounds about right, post a picture of the label for confirmation

ive only owned 2 tanks but from what ive seen that would be the date it was made, oct 2012 so its life will end oct 2027

Good deal, at the price of tanks if I start saving now I'll have almost enough to buy another one in 2027 ;D
-
January 2003. Ohhhh, my mistake you were showing people how to date them.
-
Just ask it.
Couldn't resist. As others have said, it'll be on the label.
