Female headers are one of the most versatile components in electronics — perfect for connecting things together, soldering to perfboards, creating sockets for wires, or pairing with break-away male header strips. This pack of five gives you plenty to work with.

Each header is 36 pins long with standard 0.1" (2.54mm) pitch, compatible with square-pin male headers found on development boards like the Arduino. The gold-plated contacts resist oxidation for reliable, long-lasting connections.

Key Features

  • 36-Pin Length – Easily cut down to any size you need
  • 0.1" (2.54mm) Pitch – Standard spacing compatible with most development boards and breakout boards
  • Gold-Plated Contacts – Resists oxidation for dependable connections
  • Cuttable – Pull the next pin with pliers, then cut through the empty slot with diagonal cutters

Ideal For

  • Prototyping on perfboard and breadboard projects
  • Creating sockets for microcontroller pins or breakout boards
  • General-purpose wiring and connector needs

Package Contents

  • 5× 36-pin female headers (0.1" pitch)
Tip: To cut to size, count the number of pins you need, pull out the next pin with pliers, then cut through the empty position with diagonal cutters. Clean up the edge with a file if needed.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

breakout
A breakout is a small circuit board that makes a tiny or hard-to-solder component easier to connect to with standard pins. It matters because this OLED module can be wired into a microcontroller project without needing to solder directly to the display’s fine contacts.
Headers
Rows of metal pins used to plug a module into a breadboard or connect it with jumper wires. Pre-soldered headers make the module easier to use straight away without needing to solder the pins yourself.
microcontroller
A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
