A raw setter has a plate shape, is made of the same material as in a honeycomb formed body, and has a chamfered portion in which a circumferential portion of one end face is chamfered in an oblique direction and whose has a tapered cross-sectional shape by reducing a diameter of an end face portion to an outer diameter, a ratio of an area of a flat portion to an end face area is from 10 to 85%, an angle formed between the flat portion and the chambered portion is from 3 to 50&#xb0;, a flatness of each of the flat portion of the one end face and a flat portion of the other end face is 0.3 mm or less, and a thickness of cell partition walls is 0.1 mm or less.

A filter for flitrating molten resin of the invention includes: a cylindrical filtering member formed with a large number of projections and recesses; and radially arranged rods in a supporter for supporting the cylindrical filtering member at arc-shaped projected portions, and is constructed such that molten resin material is allowed to pass through the filtering member at arc-shaped recessed portions. In this arrangement, it is possible to enhance the resistance of thermoplastic molten resin filter against filtering pressure as well as to ensure a large filtering area. Further, the filter may be constructed such that the cross-section of the aforementioned cylindrical member is made greater from the upstream side toward the downstream side. By this configuration, the flow rate of molten resin passing through the unit area of the filtering member is made uniform and consequently the collecting capacity of foreign substances is increased.
