Stacking headers combine a female socket on top with extended male pins on the bottom, allowing you to stack multiple PCBs on top of each other. Solder the long pins through a board, then plug another board's female headers onto the pins below while connecting yet another board into the sockets above.
This pack of five 36-pin stacking headers gives you the flexibility to add stackability to custom boards, breakouts, or any project where you need to layer PCBs. Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable connections that resist oxidation.
Key Features
- Stacking Design – Female socket on top, extended male pins on the bottom for multi-board stacking
- 36-Pin Length – Easily cut down to any size you need
- 0.1" (2.54mm) Pitch – Standard spacing compatible with most development and breakout boards
- Gold-Plated Contacts – Resists oxidation for dependable connections
- Versatile – Works with breadboards, perfboards, and shield-style stacking
Ideal For
- Stacking custom PCBs or breakout boards
- Adding stackability to boards that don't have a dedicated stacking header kit
- Prototyping multi-board assemblies
Package Contents
- 5× 36-pin stacking 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 board carries a small or fine-pitched component and brings its connections out to standard, breadboard- and header-friendly pins. Describing a part as a breakout means it can be wired into a project without soldering directly to the component's tiny contacts.
- 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.
- Shield
- An add-on board that plugs into a main controller board to give it extra features such as sensing, motor control or communication. Knowing a product supports shields helps you judge whether it can connect neatly into an existing maker-board setup.
