There is no set lifespan for a helmet.

Say someone has a helmet...but ride 2 months each year.

That doesn't mean after 5 years they need a new helmet.

The time to replace a helmet is after it is involved with any kind of hard impact.

That could mean after it's been hit in a crash...or dropped too many times in a parking lot.

The outer shell of a helmet is made of very strong, durable, and lasting materials.
