Use these to stack shields on your Arduino! These are standard 6-pin and 8-pin 0.1" spacing female headers...with a twist! The pins are extra long which means you can use these to stack shields! The legs are 10.5mm (0.42") long, so after the PCB thickness (1.7mm/0.07") you have a height of 8.8mm (0.35"). Comes in a package of 2 8-pin headers and 2 6-pin headers.
Some experimentation might be necessary. Some examples:
  • You can stack on top of a proto-shield, but not if there is a breadboard on it
  • You can stack on top of a motor-shield, make sure you bend the electrolytic capacitors before you solder them in, so that they lay flat against the PCB
  • You can stack on top of a wave or GPS shield with no problems
  • You can stack on top of an XPort-shield, if you dont use the 2mm headers.

We include headers with all our shield kits but these are an upgrade for those that want to stack!
