## Description

Stack multiple HATs &amp; breakouts boards onto your Raspberry Pi Model B+/2/3 with this custom-made extra-tall 2 x 20 pin female header!

This is a solderable version of ModMyPi's extra tall header designed to be soldered in place. The pins are extra-extra tall (17.40mm from the main body to end of the pin), and extra slim (0.40mm x 0.60mm) to ensure they pass through 0.6mm - 1.00mm PCB holes easily. They can then be soldered in place to make a good connection!

The header features two removable black shrouds which make the body of the header 13.7mm tall when placed on a Pi - enough to clear the Ethernet &amp; USB jacks. The black shrouds are also removable on the solderable version of ModMyPi's extra tall header, which is perfect for customizing the height of your breakout board!

To ensure a good connection, this header requires soldering to your breakout board. ModMyPi does stock a [push fit version](https://core-electronics.com.au/modmypi-40-pin-extra-tall-header-push-fit-version.html) designed to fit with [Raspberry Pi HAT Socket Headers](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-hat-socket-header-smt.html).
