Male Pin Header 2×40 Dual-Row Break-Away — 2.54mm, 5-Pack
2.54mm pitch dual-row male pin headers in 2×40 break-away strips — pack of 5. The dual-row (2×) configuration provides 80 pins per strip in a compact footprint — ideal for Raspberry Pi 40-pin GPIO headers, Arduino Mega shield connectors, IDC ribbon cable connectors, and high-density PCB interfaces. Snaps to any width from 2×1 to 2×40. 400 pins total across 5 strips.
Key Specifications
- Configuration: 2×40 (80-pin, dual row, break-away) | Pitch: 2.54mm
- Contact: Tin-plated brass | Insulator: Black nylon
- Current: 3A per pin | Voltage: 250V
- Pack: 5 strips (400 pins total)
- Compliance: RoHS compliant
Why Dual-Row?
- ✅ High pin density — 80 pins in the same footprint as a 40-pin single-row header
- ✅ Raspberry Pi compatible — 2×20 matches the full 40-pin GPIO header
- ✅ IDC ribbon cable compatible — standard dual-row pitch for IDC connectors
- ✅ Break-away — snap to any 2×N configuration needed
- ✅ 5-pack value — 400 pins for extensive prototyping and production
Typical Applications
- Raspberry Pi 40-pin GPIO header (2×20)
- Arduino Mega dual-row shield connector
- IDC ribbon cable PCB connector
- High-density PCB interface connector
- JTAG and debug interface headers
