Adafruit Shield stacking headers for Arduino (R3 Compatible)

How could something so simple be so useful? Similar to the profound impact of the wheel, stacking headers revolutionize the functionality of your Arduino projects. They enable effortless connectivity and customization, allowing the integration of various Arduino shields.

Our set includes a 10-pin header, two 8-pin headers, two 6-pin headers, and one 2x3 header. These are fully compatible with Arduino R3 and the Leonardo designs. Each leg is 10.5mm long, providing an 8.8mm clearance after PCB thickness, ideal for overcoming the Arduino's USB-B connector.

Examples of usage include stacking on top of a Proto Shield without a breadboard or on an Adafruit Motor Shield v2. Whether enhancing a Wave, NFC/RFID, or GPS shield, stacking is seamless. For Ethernet shields, two sets of headers are necessary to clear the Ethernet jack. Note: stacking directly on TFT or LCD shields isn't possible.

Please consider that some experimentation and code adjustments may be required to ensure multiple device compatibility and pin management. The possibilities with stacking headers are virtually endless, offering limitless potential for your innovative projects.
