## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=POLOLU-2748:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/POLOLU-2748:1.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. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.

## Description

This stackable 40-pin female header features two rows of 20 pins spaced with a standard 0.1" (2.54 mm) pitch; this spacing is the same as on most [solderless breadboards](https://core-electronics.com.au/prototyping/breadboards.html) and matches [0.1" male header strips](https://core-electronics.com.au/0-100-2-54-mm-breakaway-male-header-2x40-pin-straight.html). The extended pins allow multiple units to be stacked as popularized on Arduino shields, enabling removable daughter boards that can access pins without blocking them. The 2×20 size is notably used on the [Raspberry Pi Model A+](https://core-electronics.com.au/catalog/product/view/sku/POLOLU-2760) and Model B+ as well as the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, and [Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+](https://core-electronics.com.au/catalog/product/view/sku/POLOLU-2797), and its height matches Pololu's [11 mm M2.5 standoffs for Raspberry Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/aluminum-standoff-for-raspberry-pi-11mm-length-6mm-m2-5-thread-m-f-4-pack.html)

Pololu also carry an [extra-tall 2×20 stackable female header](https://core-electronics.com.au/stackable-0-100-female-header-with-extra-0-3-spacer-2x20-pin-straight.html) that includes an extra 0.3" spacer, which gives it the necessary height to clear all of the components on the Raspberry Pi Model B+ or the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B. (And if you just want a standard, non-stackable [2×20 female header](https://core-electronics.com.au/0-100-2-54-mm-female-header-2x20-pin-straight.html), Pololu have that, too.)
