Short Product Description
Looking for a reliable, color-coded connection system for your next DIY electronics project? Our 40-Pin 2.54mm Breakaway Male Headers offer the perfect balance of flexibility and structural integrity. Featuring six vibrant colors (Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, White, and Black), these single-row connectors make circuit organization intuitive and error-free. Whether you are prototyping on an Arduino, building custom PCBs, or setting up a STEM educational kit, these easy-to-snap headers ensure solid, highly conductive links every time.
Key Features
Key Features
- Universal 2.54mm Pitch: Fits seamlessly into all standard breadboards, Arduino boards, and custom PCBs, ensuring broad compatibility for any project.
- 6-Color Organization System: Includes Red, Yellow, Black, Blue, Green, and White strips, allowing you to visually color-code power, ground, and specific signal lines.
- Breakaway Design: The scored plastic base lets you easily snap the 40-pin strip into custom lengths, eliminating the need for specialized cutting tools.
- Solid Iron Core Construction: Delivers high conductivity and mechanical strength, preventing pins from bending during insertion or soldering.
- Single-Row Configuration: Ideal for low-profile projects and tight spaces where double-row headers would be too bulky.
- Ready for Soldering: Heat-resistant plastic housing ensures the pins stay perfectly aligned while you solder them to your motherboard or custom shield.

Master Your Circuit Organization with Color-Coded Precision
Prototyping shouldn't result in a tangled, confusing mess of wires. When you are deep into a complex Arduino project or assembling custom electronic components, losing track of your signal pathways can cost you hours of debugging.
Our colorful 40-pin breakaway male headers solve this problem instantly. By assigning specific colors to different data, power, and ground lines, you create a visual map of your circuit that is easy to read, troubleshoot, and explain to others.
The Ultimate Solution for Arduino & Breadboard Prototyping
Whether you are extending a sensor module or connecting a Raspberry Pi, these headers are designed for universal compatibility. The standard 2.54mm (0.1-inch) pitch ensures a perfect, snug fit into any standard breadboard or perfboard.
You don't need to be restricted by the 40-pin length, either. The specially scored plastic backing allows you to cleanly snap the strip into smaller segments—be it 2 pins for a simple jumper or 8 pins for a data bus—without sacrificing the structural strength of the remaining connectors.
Built for Makers, Engineered for Reliability
We understand that poor connections lead to failing projects. That is why these headers are constructed with a durable plastic base and solid iron pins, providing excellent mechanical stability during soldering.
Key benefits for your workflow:
- Visual Debugging: Instantly identify power (Red), ground (Black), and data (Blue/Yellow/Green/White) lines at a glance.
- Zero Waste: Snap off exactly what you need; save the rest for your next build.
- Heat Resistant: The plastic base withstands standard soldering iron temperatures, ensuring the pins remain perfectly aligned during assembly.
Stop guessing which wire goes where. Upgrade your electronics toolkit with these colorful, versatile pin headers and build with absolute confidence.

FAQ Section
FAQ Section
Q. Can I easily cut these headers to a specific size?
A. Yes! These are "breakaway" headers. The plastic base is scored between each pin, allowing you to easily snap them to your desired length using just your fingers or a pair of needle-nose pliers.
Q. Are these compatible with standard Arduino boards?
A. Absolutely. The 2.54mm spacing is the industry standard for Arduino Uno, Mega, Nano, and standard prototyping breadboards.
Q. Will the plastic melt during soldering?
A. The high-quality plastic base is designed to withstand normal soldering temperatures. As long as you use a standard soldering iron and don't dwell on a single pin for an excessive amount of time, the plastic will maintain its shape and hold the pins securely.
