Replacement Bladders

Fuel Safe offers repair services for bladders under the following conditions:

• The bladder must be 5 years old or newer.
• The bladder must have been manufactured by Fuel Safe Systems.
  

Repairs may also depend on the extent and location of the damage—major damage may not be repairable.

To confirm if a repair is possible, please submit clear photos of the affected area here: >>Customer Service

On average, most fuel cell replacement bladders include the following:

• Replacement Bladder
• 5 years of FIA-FT3 certification (if applicable)
• Foam Baffling
• 6x10 Fill Plate
• Aircraft Grade Nutring & Gasket
• Internal Fuel Pickup Hose

Only our Pro Cell®, Sportsman®, and Enduro® product lines of replacement bladders include FIA-FT3 certification.

The time in which a replacement bladder is needed is dependent on the product line of the bladder and the variables / elements that the bladder is exposed to while in use.  

        ****Check with your race sanctioning body rule book to find out if active FIA-FT3 certification is required on the fuel cell.  IF it is required, then a replacement bladder would need to be purchased every 5 years.****

• On average, most flexible fuel bladders, such as our Sportsman® and Pro Cell® bladders, will typically last 5-10 years as long as the variables / elements that the bladder is exposed to while in use do not negatively impact the bladder. (still only 5 years of FIA-FT3 certification)
• On average, most rigid / hard sided fuel bladders, such as our Enduro® bladders, will typically last the entirety of the vehicle’s useful life as long as the variables / elements that the bladder is exposed to while in use do not negatively impact the bladder. (still only 5 years of FIA-FT3 certification)
