In the world of 3D printing, there are so many different colours to choose from to create funky, exciting or otherwise tasteful prints, although there are times in which you might want to print in a completely transparent plastic. This is why our spools of Natural Polycarbonate 1.75mm 0.5kg ESUN filament are a popular choice among 3D Printing enthusiasts, as they open up many new creative possibilities for printing see-through parts and objects like covers, cases, screens and even lenses for your projects.
Aside from the fact that it’s transparent, Polycarbonate Filament also offers the benefit of being highly durable, with impressive impact strength. In fact, some PC polymers even outshine acrylic materials like PMMA, and this is achieved at less than half the density of most glass structures as well. This makes PC not only durable, but also lightweight compared to many of the alternatives on the market. And just to top off the already-impressive characteristics of Polycarbonate, eSUN have also specially formulated their ePC Filament to be fire resistant to the rating of UL94 V-2, making it ideal for all kinds of applications from high-strength decorative pieces to electronics boxes and even 3D printed soldering accessories.

Shenzhen eSUN Industrial Co., Ltd was established in 2002 in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and has rapidly become one of the leading international suppliers of 3D Printing Filament. They specialise in research, development and production of degradable polymer materials, and have grown their catalogue of filaments to include PLA, ABS, PC, PVA, and a wide range of other polymers and copolymers.
Their list of exclusive filament formulas include unique materials like wood, aluminium, bronze and other materials to create highly specialised filaments that can stretch, bend, be moulded or otherwise behave in very unique ways. Their filaments are also commonly characterised by their absolutely round shape, extremely low diameter tolerance, uniform colours and impressively stable melting points. These characteristics, in combination with their long-term insistent policy of “Best Quality, Reasonable Price” has garnered them a large share of the market, with their reputation commonly preceding them within knowledgeable online and offline 3D Printing communities.
eSUN’s popularity in the industry has also helped to produce sustainable partnerships with many internationally famous 3D Printer manufacturers and distributors, with DIYElectronics having sole distributorship rights to provide their 3D Printing Filaments to South Africa and neighbouring African countries.
