Ensure high-reliability connections in your sensitive electronic projects with our 40-Pin Single Row Round Male Pin Header. Unlike standard square-pin headers, these "turned-pin" style headers feature circular cross-sections, providing a superior fit for IC sockets, high-end connectors, and precision PCB prototyping.
This specific variant features a 12mm total pin length, offering the extra reach needed for specialized mounting or stacking where standard 10mm headers fall short. Whether you are repairing vintage hardware or building modern high-precision modules, these headers provide the mechanical stability and electrical integrity your circuit demands.
High-Precision Round Pins: Designed for a smoother interface with female headers and IC sockets, reducing wear and improving contact surface area.
12mm Extended Length: Perfect for custom clearance requirements or through-hole applications requiring a longer contact point.
Standard 2.54mm Pitch: Fully compatible with universal breadboards and standard PCB layouts.
Snappable Design: The 40-pin strip can be easily trimmed or snapped to any smaller size (e.g., 2-pin, 8-pin) to fit your specific design.
Gold/Tin Plated Finish: Ensures excellent solderability and long-term protection against oxidation and corrosion.
Type: Single Row Male Round Pin Header (1x40).
Pin Count: 40 Pins per strip.
Pin Length: 12mm.
Pin Diameter: Precision Round.
Insulator Material: High-temperature thermoplastic.
IC Socket Interfacing: Connecting modules directly into high-quality machined IC sockets.
Precision Prototyping: Providing reliable, low-noise connection points for sensors and high-speed data modules.
Vintage Computer Repair: Replacing or upgrading headers on legacy hardware that requires round-pin compatibility.
Stackable PCB Modules: Creating custom-height board-to-board connections.
Can I use these in a standard breadboard?
Yes. The 2.54mm pitch is standard, and the round pins often provide a firmer, more reliable grip in breadboard spring contacts compared to square pins.
How do I snap them to size?
While round-pin headers are slightly more robust than square ones, they can still be snapped by hand or with a pair of pliers between the plastic insulators.
Is the 12mm length for the whole pin?
Yes, the 12mm refers to the total length of the metal pin. Usually, a small portion (approx 3mm) stays inside the board, while the rest remains available for connection.
