- Allow all components to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area before storage to prevent corrosion and mildew.
- Inspect the webbing, stainless steel D-rings, waist buckle, tri-glides, and back plate mounting hardware regularly for wear, corrosion, or loose fittings.
- Check cam bands, wing nuts, and attachment points before every dive to ensure a secure tank connection.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, harsh chemicals, and salt residue to maximize the lifespan of webbing and hardware.
- Store in a cool, dry place with straps loosely arranged to prevent unnecessary creasing or abrasion.
- Periodically inspect and tighten all hardware, replacing worn webbing or corroded components as needed for safe diving performance.
