If you tow your race car to the track, you know how important it is to have good brakes on your tow vehicle. The extra weight involved is enough to overpower most stock brake systems and many aftermarket pads. Long distances and demanding schedules often lead to higher towing speeds, which increase the shear force. When you add in the increased pressures required to stop your tow vehicle, wear becomes a critical issue as well. The obvious answer is to use Performance Friction's Carbon Metallic® brake pads on your tow vehicle. The same high-tech materials, computer-aided design, Ionic FusionTM, and performance levels go into our brake pads designed for towing applications. We have pads available for all full-size pickup trucks (Ford, Chevy, and Dodge) from half-ton to one-ton. We also have a large selection of pads for medium-duty trucks and motorhomes.
Performance Friction disc brake pads are used by fleets throughout the country because our Carbon Metallic®   material gives superior stopping power and our Ionic FusionTM adds a large safety margin. School bus companies, shippers, police departments, rental car agencies, and others depend on our pads. Many have conducted their own tests, and the results are always the same: Performance Friction pads are the best. One national parcel delivery fleet saw rotor consumption go down by almost

Another delivery company cut its brake pad usage from 500 to 600 pads in a year to 150 to 160 pads.It's obvious what that means to their cost-per-mile figures. In addition, we offer a limited warranty for commercial vehicles that guarantees that Carbon Metallic® disc pads will outlast any other manufacturer's pads on the same vehicles or we'll replace them free. Call us and we'll send you the details on this program.
 
If you drive a race car, you probably drive a high-performance street car, too. Performance Friction offers a wide assortment of disc brake pads for street vehicles so you can enjoy the increased performance and better wear characteristics that come with Carbon Metallic®. If you drive a Corvette, Mustang, Camaro, or other hi-po car, you know that the brakes can be better. With Performance Friction brake pads, you can save yourself the expense of converting over to a bigger brake system or enhance it if you've already
swapped. We offer more braking power than anything else you can buy, better wear, no fade, and consistency throughout the life of the pad. You'll have better feel during hard braking, easier modulation, and no more pull to one side. We have pads for a large number of passenger cars, sport utilities, and pickups -- from Acuras to Volkswagens and just about everything else in between.
