4 Pieces White 1×40 2.54mm Gold Plated Male Pin Header

Description

What it is

The white gold-plated pin headers are a fundamental component for connecting PCB circuits to breadboards or other boards. This item consists of four pieces of pin headers, each with 40 connection points.

Features

• Color: White
• Material: Gold-plated copper
• Length: 1*40 (40 connection points)
• Pin spacing: 2.54 mm

What it is for

Pin headers are useful for interconnecting different parts of an electronic circuit, such as connecting an Arduino board to a breadboard or another board. They are particularly suitable for projects that require the use of buttons, LEDs, or other components to be mounted on a breadboard.
