This video discusses strength PLA, Nylon 910, ABS and Polycarbonate. Each material is tested by 3d printing a common hook and then loading the hook until it fractures. The following materials are used:

PLA (polylactic acid) filament: https://airwolf3d.com/shop/platinum-series-abs-filament-2-88mm-2-2lbs-121/
For PLA we apply Wolfbite Nano to that bed to help with adhering it: https://airwolf3d.com/shop/wolfbitenano-prevents-pla-3d-printed-parts-from-warping/

ABS filament: https://airwolf3d.com/shop/platinum-series-abs-filament-2-88mm-2-2lbs-107/
We use Wolfbite on our glass bed to adhere the ABS and to minimize the chance of warping on the part: https://airwolf3d.com/shop/wolfbite-prevents-3d-printed-parts-from-warping/

Nylon 910 filament: https://airwolf3d.com/shop/alloy910/
