We study the distribution of threshold forces at the depinning transition for an elastic system of finite size, driven by an external force in a disordered medium at zero temperature. Using the functional renormalization group technique, we compute the distribution of pinning forces in the quasistatic limit. This distribution is universal up to two parameters, the average critical force and its width. We discuss possible definitions for threshold forces in finite-size samples. We show how our results compare to the distribution of the latter computed recently within a numerical simulation of the so-called critical configuration.
