This 2×20 pin extra tall male GPIO header stands 12 mm high, providing additional clearance when soldering onto HATs, Bonnets, or custom boards for Raspberry Pi. It's ideal for boards that don't come with headers pre-soldered, or when you need extra height for stacking.

Key Features

  • 40-Pin (2×20) – Matches the Raspberry Pi 40-pin GPIO layout
  • 12 mm Tall – Extra height for stacking and clearance
  • 2.54 mm Pitch – Standard 0.1″ pin spacing
  • Through-Hole – Solder to HATs, Bonnets, or custom PCBs

Ideal For

  • Soldering headers onto Pi HATs and Bonnets
  • Stacking multiple boards with extra clearance
  • Custom Raspberry Pi projects requiring tall male headers

Package Contents

  • 1× 2×20 pin extra tall GPIO header (12 mm)

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

GPIO
General-purpose input/output pins are microcontroller pins you can set in software to read signals, switch devices on and off, or connect to peripherals. The number of GPIO pins matters because it limits how many buttons, LEDs, sensors, and other parts you can wire directly to the board.
Headers
Rows of connector contacts on a fixed pitch (commonly 2.54 mm) used to link a board to a breadboard, jumper wires, or another board. They come as male pin headers and female socket headers; when a module ships with pre-soldered headers it can be used straight away, whereas bare pads require soldering the pins yourself.
through-hole
A mounting style where the component leads pass through holes in a circuit board and are soldered on the other side. Through-hole parts are often easier to handle and solder by hand, which is useful for classroom and hobby projects.
