Overview

A single-row male pin header with 40 straight pins at the standard 2.54mm (0.1 inch) spacing. It snaps cleanly to any length, so you can fit pins to a sensor module, Nano, ESP32 board or your own PCB and plug it into a breadboard, a female header or Dupont jumper leads. If you need the pins to point out sideways, parallel to the board, use the right-angle 1×40 header.

Great for

Fitting pins to a sensor module so it plugs into a breadboard
Adding headers to an ESP32, Nano or Pico-style board
Making plug-in connection points on your own PCB
Replacing a damaged or missing header on a module
Adding test points to stripboard for Dupont jumper leads
Building stackable adaptor and shield boards

Wiring & getting started

  1. Snap to length

    Count the pins you need, then bend the strip at the notch with flat-nose pliers or your fingers. It breaks cleanly between two pins. Side cutters work too if you cut in the notch, not through a pin.

  2. Short side into the board

    The short ends go through the board and get soldered. The long ends are the connector side. For a module, push the long ends into a breadboard first and sit the module on top, so the pins stay straight while you solder.

  3. Solder and check

    Tack one end pin, check the strip sits flat, then solder the rest. Keep each joint quick so the plastic does not soften, and check for bridges between neighbouring pins before powering up.

  4. Connect

    Plug the finished pins into a breadboard or a female header, or use female Dupont jumper wires.
