It probably depends a lot on the quality of the material they are made from.
I remember once rebuilding
a (non-British) carb with a sort-of-cheap rebuild kit, and discovering that
after a year, some of the rubber bits
were already cracking.
I last changed mine about 8 years ago, but for all I know, it could stop
working tomorrow.
