This page summarizes the properties and prices for various brands of PP filament in an interactive table; some top picks are featured. Since data may be approximated for simplification, always check the manufacturer site for detailed and up to date specifications. Prices are adjusted to reflect the cost per kilogram since some filaments are sold fractionally.

Brand | Name | Made In | Price ($/kg) | Extruder (°C) | Bed (°C) | Diameter Tolerance (±mm) | HDT (°C) | Tensile Modulus (MPa) | Tensile Strength (MPa) | Fracture Elongation | Link 1 | Link 2 |
CF: Carbon Fiber, ESD: Electrostatic Discharge safe, GF: Glass Fiber, FR: Flame Retardant
HDT (Heat Deflection Temperature): Test bar deflection of 0.01" (0.25 mm) with a load of 0.46 MPa (66 psi)
Modulus: MPa
Tensile Strength: MPa
Fracture Elongation: Percent change in length at the point of failure under the tensile load
The modulus is a measure of the stiffness of a material; higher values will result in a stiffer object. Flexural is the measure against bending, whereas tensile is the measure against compression or tension. The strength is the measure of pressure (distributed force) the part can withstand before failure.
