This is a placeholder topic for “Slim Header -Female 1x20” comments.
If stacking your boards too high is an issue check out this range of low-profile headers!
Read moreHi, it appears that my question may have failed to post due to an API error on the main site, so I’ll repeat it here in the generated thread.
Would it be possible to get the dimension technical specifications of the slim 2.54mm/1.0" pitch female headers?
Having the lengths of the pins and of the insulator would be useful for planning stackable boards where project height is at a premium.
Hi Saand
On the Core page under specifications
- 7mm total height
That is surely only the black part. It does not seem enough to include pins. I agree this sort of detail would be a great help in planning.

Hi @Saand1338
I’ve measured up one of the shelf stock that we have of the item and it would be 7mm overall, the insulator would be 3.44mm, and the pins also would be 3.56mm.
Beautiful, thank you Dan!
Providing both measurements from an actual part is perfect to move forward provided there’s an assumption of a small tolerance.
They’re even slimmer than expected, so they look to be a great fit for height limited projects that still require socketing.

Hey @Saand1338
Not a problem at all, I’ve updated the product page with those measurements which should be live in a few hours.
