A 40-pin single-row female header strip with standard 0.1" (2.54mm) spacing. This versatile header can be trimmed to any length you need, making it perfect for custom projects and Arduino-compatible builds.
The sockets accept standard 0.1" male header pins, creating reliable plug-and-socket connections for prototyping and permanent installations alike.
Key Features
- 40 Pins – Trim to any length as needed
- Standard 0.1" Pitch – Universal compatibility
- Single Row – Matches standard male header strips
- PCB Mount – Through-hole soldering
Ideal For
- Arduino and microcontroller sockets
- Breadboard-to-PCB adapters
- Custom shield connectors
- Module mounting headers
- Prototyping and development boards
Specifications
- Pins: 40 (single row)
- Pitch: 2.54mm (0.1")
- Type: Female socket
- Mounting: Through-hole (PCB)
- Warranty: 12 months
Package Contents
- 1× 40-Pin Female Header Strip
Tip: Score the plastic between pins with a craft knife before snapping to get clean breaks when trimming to length.
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- 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.
- microcontroller
- A microcontroller is a small computer on a single chip that runs a stored program and controls connected inputs and outputs such as buttons, sensors, displays and communication interfaces. In a device built around one, it is the part that executes the code and coordinates the device's behaviour.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board (PCB) is a board, usually rigid, with etched copper tracks that connect electronic components together without loose wiring. Components are mounted on the board and signals route between them through the copper layout.
- 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.
- 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.
