- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA3646:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged.

## Description

Get a precision fit with these lovely machined 'Swiss pin' headers. In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except Adafruit need headers, headers, and more headers!

**Each pack contains five 36-pin female socket headers, standard 0.1" pitch.** [They also stock its male plug counterpart that these fit with](https://core-electronics.com.au/36-pin-swiss-male-plug-headers-pack-of-5.html). You cannot use regular stamped-metal headers with swiss pin as they will not fit

Female headers are like the duct tape of electronics. They're great for connecting things, soldering to perf-boards, sockets for wires or break-away header, etc. Adafruit go through them real fast and thought that given how handy they are, we'd offer them in a pack of five!

You can cut these down to different sizes fairly easily. First, count how many positions you want as the final piece, then cut the next pin's plastic in the middle (there's one pin that gets sacrificed). You can clean off the half-spot with a file or diagonal cutters.

[Adafruit have a ton of different types, sizes, and pitch headers in the store - check 'em out](https://www.adafruit.com/categories/154)
