Performance Friction Corporation has been named as IndyCar's exclusive brake supplier from the 2017 season, replacing Brembo.
Following a successful test earlier this year, PFC and INDYCAR signed a multi-year agreement starting next season, expanding on the supplier's current commitments in the Mazda Road to Indy support series.
"Earlier this season the majority of our teams tested the PFC brake package and the feedback we received was overwhelmingly positive," INDYCAR president of competition and operations Jay Frye said.
"PFC has a long history of building outstanding performance products that we expect to be a great benefit to the competition in the Verizon IndyCar Series. We're excited to kick off this partnership with PFC and appreciate all their efforts and commitment to INDYCAR."
PFC president Nina Burgoon added: "INDYCAR has always been close to our hearts at PFC. We are excited and honored that this long-awaited partnership is now a reality. PFC is committed to providing the best-performing package for the car and is thankful for the opportunity INDYCAR has given us to exceed their expectations."
