Quality Policy

Performance Friction began manufacturing friction materials with two main goals, which still hold true today:

            
       * Excite the customer with the absolute best product, delivery and value
       * A total commitment to product and process integrity

Statistical Testing and Quality

         * Over 12% of sales invested into R&D
       * Laser diffraction technology measures raw material particle size
       * Real time statistical analysis through each step of manufacturing
       * Analytical model based design strategy
       * Strict automated process controls and radio frequency bar coding ensure 
          traceability, consistency, and quality - ZERO DEFECTS.

Simulated Testing

Brake Dynamometer Testing can accurately simulate 500 laps at
any number of professional racetracks with speeds up to 200mph,
or a leisurely country drive at 30mph.  These "dyno" tests give critical data regarding: temperature, performance, noise, friction,
and vibration.

Vehicle Testing- the ultimate proof

Before any product goes to market, hours of on-vehicle testing make certain that PFC products meet strict performance criteria on the actual models for which each component is designed.  Vehicle testing gives real world data regarding:  

        * Stopping distance
       * Fade performance
       * Brake balance
       * Brake system response
       * Noise and vibration
       * Component interaction and stress    
       * Pad life
       * Rotor life

Environmentally Safe

Performance Friction Brakes are safe for the technician, the environment and the driver, a standard not maintained by all brake manufacturers.  Products clean up safely and easily with soap and water and meet Proposition 65 requirements for California.

       * No Asbestos
       * No Lead
       * No Antimony
