Description
2.5mm Pitch Male Header Pins – 40 Pins
The 2.5mm Pitch Male Header Pins – 40 Pins provides a convenient connection interface for electronic circuit boards and compatible modules. It consists of a row of metal pins mounted in an insulating plastic base, designed for soldering onto a printed circuit board (PCB).
With 40 pins in a single strip, it can be used as supplied or separated into smaller sections according to project requirements, depending on the strip’s construction. The 2.5mm pitch refers to the centre-to-centre distance between adjacent pins.
These header pins are useful for PCB prototyping, module connections, custom electronics assemblies and creating removable or soldered connections. Before using them, confirm that the 2.5mm spacing matches the PCB footprint and mating connector.
