Machined Round Pin Male Header 1×12 Break-Away Gold — 2.54mm, 50-Pack

Machined Round Pin Male Header 1×12 Break-Away Gold — 2.54mm, 50-Pack

Machined round pin male headers in 1×12 break-away configuration with gold-plated contacts — bulk pack of 50 strips. Machined round pins provide lower insertion force and superior contact retention compared to standard stamped square pins, making them the preferred choice for IC sockets, test fixtures, and applications requiring frequent mating cycles. Gold plating ensures minimal contact resistance and long-term corrosion resistance. Each 12-pin strip snaps to any shorter length.

Machined Round vs Standard Square Pins

• ✅ Machined round pins — precision turned for consistent diameter and lower insertion force
• ✅ Gold plating — superior corrosion resistance and lower contact resistance vs tin
• ✅ High cycle life — withstands thousands of mating cycles without degradation
• ✅ 50-pack bulk value — 600 pins for production runs and workshop stock

Typical Applications

• IC socket pins for DIP package socketing
• Test fixture contact pins for repeated insertion
• High-reliability module socketing requiring frequent removal
• Production PCB assembly with gold-plated machined contacts
• Pogo pin alternative for low-force contact applications
