Discs come in a wide variety of plastics. Some are better suited for certain scenarios than others, others are simply better quality and will last longer.
Every brand has their own names for the different plastic types. We’ve put this chart together as a general reference the next time you see a plastic name and want to know how it fairs!
| BASE PLASTIC | STANDARD PLASTIC | TRANSLUCENT PREMIUM PLASTIC | OPAQUE PREMIUM PLASTIC | SPECIAL EDITION |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Suregrip Plastic (SS-SSSS) Gateway have 4 different firmness’ in their Suregrip base plastic used for putters. All high quality options. Which firmness’ kind of speaks for itself, but makes more sense when you know the following: Firm (F) Super Soft (SS - aka 2S) Super Stupid Soft (SSS - aka 3S) Super Stupid Silly Soft (SSSS - aka 4S) |
Eraser This plastic looks and feels like the rubber on the end of a pencil. Hence the name “Eraser”. Nothing really similar on the market. Changes grip depending on the temperature. |
Diamond Gateway have succeeded in creating a different looking plastic than most in this class but it feels great in the hand and is as durable as any of the others. Good option for those wanting long lasting discs. |
Platinum You won’t be disappointed if you’re trying something different or like the look of the Gateway brand. Great plastic. Platinum discs are always solid in colour, are slightly less stable and have a more gummy feeling than their Diamond plastic. |
Superglow Some special element is added to make these Glow putters. Normally they feel like the SS plastic if that helps. |
|
Money Not seen very often in NZ. This blend is only known as it is marked with an “$” somewhere on the disc. Extra gummy element added making them look shiny on the surface and become really gummy with use making them great for wet and cold days. |
Special Blend (SB) Hardly ever seen in NZ but here’s what they say “We often sample materials that are sent to us by suppliers that are either entirely new components or additives to our existing blends. We started labeling special blends after several years of running them with the first being SB-6 and are now up to SB-30. These prototype batches range in quantities from 60 to 300 discs. Unfortunately it’s not always possible to recreate the runs due to their experimental nature. The current blend of SB-30 is something we can recreate and could end up becoming the final Special Blend.” |

Organic Organic runs are made using a combination of recycled rubber and a renewable resource (corn based bio-polymer) making an ecofriendly product. Most organic discs are neutral tones and have flecks of other colours through the plastic. Firmness ranges between S and 2S. |
||||
|
Pure White The Pure White blends are created to produce a flatter, lower profile driving putter. The PW runs are mostly on the stiffer side are are slightly more over stable so can handle a high power shot such as Putter Drives or forehand flicks |

P-Line (Formerly known as Pro-D/D Line) Discrafts cheapest type of plastic but still very good quality. Least durable of their range makes it great for putters. It has great grip in the hand. |
X Line Very grippy plastic, but is more prone to wear than most in this class |
Z Line Well known for it's durability. Semi-translucent, very stiff, and very resistant to wear. Generally more overstable than other plastics |
ESP Very durable plastic. This type of plastic is made to be very grippy and they all feel amazing in the hand. Often available in cool swirls. It could mean Extra Sticky Plastic but don’t quote us on that. |
Discraft has a few player designed blends.. you might have to do a bit more digging for this answer as they vary from player to player |
|
Jawbreaker Designed to be the best plastic for Putt and Approach discs. This unique marbled blend feels nice and tacky, the perfect grip for releasing putts consistently. The plastic is a medium stiffness, and features advanced polymers for good durability. |
Big Z The main difference between Z Line and Big Z is the cooler stamps they have on them but some will tell you there is a difference in flight and apparently they are supposed to be a little bit more grippy as well. |
Titanium Discraft’s premium plastic. A cross between the durable Z plastic and the grippy ESP plastic. perfection. |

|
Z-FLX Grippy and softer Z-Line. The word Gummy comes to mind |
ESP FLX Basically their ESP-Line line but more flexible. Great for cold weather conditions. Pretty rare at the time of writing this |

| OPAQUE PREMIUM PLASTIC |
|
Star Made of various blends of polymers with high grip and resilience. It is highly durable – Innova even claims that it is as durable as the Champion plastic. However, it has more grip. Available in Star Lite which is simply light weight version of the same disc. |
|
GStar A blend of Star that adds flexibility and even more grip. GStar is opaque like Star, but features a pearlescent sheen. . GStar discs are generally less stable in flight than Star. |
|
Echo Recycled and Rare |
| SPECIAL EDITION |
|
Halo Simply a really cool looking Star plastic because of the colour change fade at the edge. All the cool kids are doing it. Mostly reserved for Tour Series Discs. |
All three of these brands are made by the same company.
MVP and Axiom have an extra molded edge that makes them a little bit better in the wind.
MVP have black rims, Axiom have coloured rims.

| MVP doesn’t really have a cheap plastic option. But for a few dollars more you really do get the best in the business. |
Electron High Tech Base Line plastic blend for superb grip. Probably some of the best feeling plastic in this class. Designed to wear slowly with use Also available in “Soft” or “Firm” flexibility for putters |
Proton MVP's Most Durable Premium Line. High durability for a long consistent life Designed to withstand the roughest conditions Transparent candy colors Also available in soft flexibility for putters |
Neutron Flagship Premium plastic. It comes in the widest arrangement of bright colours. Very durable. Cosmic Neutron is the same as above but with sweet swirls through the centre. Its the most stable of all the MVP plastics. |
MVP, Axiom and Streamline produce their Special Edition range by using their existing plastics and making super cool full coloured stamps instead. This makes up their SE range of discs. |
|
Cosmic Electron The same as above but sweet swirls / bursts through the plastic. |
Eclipse Class Leading Glow The worlds most glowy of glow plastics. Super bright and long lasting action for night time play. |
Fission™ Class Leading Lightweights Uses Microbubble Technology to create an ultralight middle of the disc. The added rim then has an even higher GYRO® overmold density rate making these spin faster making them much more resistant to the wind. Generally they are available in lighter weights and fly less stable than other MVP plastics. |

R2 Neutron Plastic The environmentally conscious choice because it's made from recycled plastic. Almost all are Black with a white rim. It offers the same feel as Neutron and similar durability. If it's not a perfect mold then MVP won't sell the disc, instead they'll chip it into tiny pieces (recycled). |

Plasma Plastic Possibly the worlds most Advanced Disc Golf Polymer. The result is a highly durable premium blend with a metallic sheen. It is also a grippy premium blend and often has colour changing qualities. |

Active Active plastic is a base level plastic, This solid plastic blend offers a well priced starting point for beginners starting out. |
D-Line D-line offers great grip. Consistently great results. Great option for Putters. Comes in 3 different flexes. Flex 1 Softest Flex 2 Medium stiffness Flex 3 Firmest |
C-Line Swedish Made Class leading durability Discmania's most durable plastic. C-Line discs retain original flight characteristics for an extended period of time. Whether used in heavily wooded situations, or on extremely rugged courses, the C-Line plastic will continue to perform predictably and avoid damage better than almost any other plastic. Good grip and showstopper see-through look. Typically the most stable blend of plastic. |
S-Line Swedish Made Excellent grip in all weather conditions with great durability. This plastic ages well, which means that your disc doesn’t change drastically in its flight behaviour after a couple of collisions with trees. Potentially the nicest feel in the hand for all options in this class. |
Forge Semi-translucent, highly durable and grippy premium plastic with metallic substance mixed in it. |
|
Geo Pretty much just a softer Exo but less durable |
Exo High Quality Putter option. Amazing feel in the hand gives a very consistent release. Two different flexes soft and hard. Great grip, especially the soft plastic. |
Active Premium Chinese Made Active Premium plastic is translucent and highly durable plastic. Active Premium plastic is not very consistent between runs so flight numbers are not always correct. Cheapest of all Disc Shops premium plastic making it an affordable option for starting out. |
Neo Semi-translucent (AKA sort of see through, but not quite). Not only great looking but also the one of the most durable options in this class. Still has some flex to it, so still offers good grip. |
Meta The Meta plastic is a beautiful, pearly and extremely durable blend. The iridescent qualities of Meta plastic will make the disc change colours in any lighting condition when tilted at different angles, making it an even more unique experience. |
|
Lux Solid, premium plastic with outstanding grip in all conditions. Lux plastic is very durable and ages well. Rarest of all Discmania Stock plastics. |
Vapor Vapor plastic has strong colour bursts. They add the word Vapor to make Vapor Lux or Vapor Exo. This simply means you get a super colourful collared disc with a burst pattern through it. These are all pretty cool. |
