Description
This pack contains ten (10) individual strips of single-row male headers. Each strip is typically comprised of 40 pins, which can be easily snapped or cut into smaller segments (such as 2-pin, 4-pin, or 10-pin) to fit your specific circuit requirements.
The vibrant blue plastic insulator isn't just for aesthetics; it is frequently used by engineers for color-coding. For example, blue headers are often designated for analog I/O signals or specific voltage rails to prevent cross-wiring errors in complex builds involving Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or custom breadboard layouts.
Features
Breakaway Design: The thermoplastic carrier is notched between each pin, allowing you to "snap" the strip by hand or with pliers to get the exact pin count needed.
Standard 2.54mm Pitch: Features the universal 0.1inch (2.54mm) spacing, making it perfectly compatible with all standard breadboards, perforated boards (perf-boards), and female jumper wires.
Through-Hole Mounting: Straight, vertical pins designed for easy insertion and soldering into PCB plated-through holes.
Corrosion-Resistant Plating: Pins are typically tin-plated or gold-flashed to ensure low contact resistance and long-term signal integrity.
Stackable Compatibility: Perfectly mates with standard female headers or Dupont-style connectors.
