I do not see anything about an expiration date.

"A SFI-27.1 ribbon-type or mesh-type window net is mandatory on any full-bodied car required by the rules to have a roll cage."

The only thing changed here is the placing of "SFI-27.1" in front of the wording "ribbon-type" and the deleting of the "SFI-27.1" in front of the words Mesh-Type. So now both "ribbon-type and "mesh-type" window nets must meet SFI-17.1 specs.
look at the last page that list the expiration dates on all safety equipment. it shows 2 years on nets.
