Provided is a particulate filter in which a PM collection rate is stably increased. The particulate filter according to the present invention includes a substrate 10 having a wall flow structure having a porous partition wall 16 that partitions an inlet cell and an outlet cell, and a wash coat layer held on surfaces of internal pores of the partition wall. In addition, average filling rates A, B, and C of the wash coat layer measured for each predetermined pore diameter range in the internal pores satisfy specific relationships. Further, the wash coat layer is formed in a region that occupies 50% or more of a thickness of the partition wall, and an amount of a noble metal catalyst carried by the wash coat layer is 0 g/L or more but 0.2 g/L or less. |
