      They do wear out over time, especially the HP disc. Just like bending a paper clip back and forth will break it, the filling and lowering of the tanks pressure, will weaken the disc over time. But it isnt something to worry about unless you have a disc that could blow and put shrapnel into your body, then replace it once a year or so.
      I have nothing good to put here...........
