The absolute best brakes on the market

Performance Friction brakes are the standard of excellence in high-performance vehicles, commercial fleets and street vehicles.

Racing champions know Performance Friction Brakes. Hundreds of races and more than 1,500 championships have been won on Performance Friction Carbon Metallic® pads, ranging from NASCAR Winston Cup to IndyCar to the Australian Porsche Cup. Last year alone, over 120 racing champions all over the world drove to victory on Performance Friction brakes.

Fleet maintenance managers know Performance Friction Brakes.

Verizon, FedEx, Ryder, Budget, International and Freightliner, police fleets, school bus fleets, ambulances, and heavy haul-truck fleets are just a sampling of those who rely on Performance Friction Brakes.

Off-Highway distributors count on Performance Friction to supply Carbon Metallic® and Carbon Metallic Z-Rated® brake pads. Performance Friction was the first brake pad supplier to bring an asbestos-free solution that could stop a 16-ton loader at 35 mph. We make heavy-duty pads to cover hundreds of applications, including Caterpillar, Clark-Michigan, BF Goodrich, Volvo, and 31 other off-highway manufacturers.

Street Upgrades for nearly every make and model are manufactured to meet or exceed OE specifications.

Whether your driving a brand new sportscar, a late model sedan, a vintage collectible, towing your bass boat with your pick-up, driving the kids around in your SUV, racing in an SCCA event, or touring country roads on your motorcycle – we’ve got the brake pad to fit your needs.

Performance Friction brake pads and rotors are 100 percent American made in our Clover, South Carolina, production plant. With world-class manufacturing processes in place, our 200,000 square foot facility supplies brake pads and rotors for domestic and international markets, major automotive retailers including Auto Zone and Pep Boys, and thousands of brake installers through local distributor networks.

PFC is proud to support ASE (Automotive Service Excellence) certification and the NATEF (National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation). Visit the ASE web site for complete information on available ASE certifications.
