Overview

A single-row male pin header with 40 right-angle pins at the standard 2.54mm (0.1 inch) spacing. Each pin is bent 90 degrees, so when the strip is soldered to a board the connector pins point out sideways, parallel to the board. That suits side-entry plugs such as a USB-to-serial adaptor, and connections that need to stay low inside an enclosure. It snaps to any length. For pins that stand straight up from the board, use the straight 1×40 header.

2.54mm 1×40 right-angle male header strip

One 40-pin strip per unit. Buy 5 or more for the bulk prices shown above.

Great for

A side-entry 6-pin serial header for a USB-to-serial adaptor
Connections at the edge of a board that sits flat in a case
Keeping a plug-in connection low under a lid or display
Plugging a small board in edge-on to a female header
Side connectors on your own PCB or stripboard
Replacing a damaged right-angle header on a module

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. Fit it to the board

    Push the bent legs down through the holes from the top of the board, so the plastic sits flat on the board and the straight pins point out past the edge.

  3. Solder and check

    Solder one end leg from underneath, check the strip is flat and square to the edge, then solder the rest. Keep each joint quick so the plastic does not soften, and check for bridges between neighbouring pins.

  4. Connect

    Plug a female header or female Dupont jumper wires onto the pins from the side.

Note: the connector pins point sideways, so a module fitted with this header will not plug down into a breadboard. Use the straight version for that.
