80 Pin 2.54mm Right Angled DIL Pin Header - Male

Electronics can be one of the most exciting hobbies available to Makers, but every now and then you need Components that aren’t super-fancy or advanced, such as this simple 80 Pin 2.54mm Right Angled Male DIL Pin Header. This DIL Header, which is essentially two rows of pre-mounted connectors, makes connecting multiple ports as easy as possible, featuring a through-hole design with solder tails so that it can be integrated directly onto a PCB, or can be fitted onto Connectors, Wiring and even standard PCB ports in order to make your life as an Electronics Maker more convenient.

This DIL header is 40 pins long and 2 pins wide for a total of 80 pins, and this is ideal for wire-to-board and board-to-board applications, with the option for users to breakaway any number of pins from the original strip. This makes it ideal for projects like making your own Raspberry Pi HATs, as well as for creating breakout boards that you don’t want to permanently solder to main boards, as it allows you to solder the pin header onto the breakout board or shield, and then plug it directly into a development platform like an Arduino or Raspberry Pi SBC. Furthermore, with such a long length, these units allow you to take the precise number you need for your project, whether you need to build a 10 pin DIL Header, 40 Pin DIL He3ader or even a full 80 Pin Header for a truly expansive number of connections.

If you love to work with headers to make your life easier, but are looking for Straight headers or other types of PCB, SIL and DIL Pin Headers, be sure to take a look at our Headers/Sockets Category, which includes standard PCB headers or various types, as well as more unique socket systems like ZIF Sockets.
