Fuel Safe FAQ
What is the lifespan of a Fuel Safe bladder?
Most FIA-approved fuel bladders have a formal service life of 5 years from the date of manufacture. After this period, they often require a factory inspection or replacement to maintain their certification for sanctioned competition. For non-competition use, the bladders are extremely durable but should be inspected regularly for signs of degradation.
Are Fuel Safe cells compatible with E85?
Yes. Fuel Safe offers specialized bladder materials (such as those in the Pro Cell line) specifically designed to handle the corrosive nature of E85, ethanol, and methanol blends. Always ensure you specify your fuel type when selecting a cell to ensure the internal foam and seals are compatible.
How quickly can you source Fuel Safe products?
We utilise a robust international and local supply network to provide the fastest possible turnaround. While some custom cells are made-to-order, many popular Enduro and Pro Cell sizes are sourced and despatched within a short timeframe for delivery across Australia.
