Why Choose This Header

Unlike standard 2.54mm headers used in most arcade parts, this 2mm pitch header matches the tighter spacing found on Brook boards and modern gaming electronics. The breakaway design lets you snap off exact pin counts needed - create 1x4 segments for JST connectors, 1x10 for custom harnesses, or use the full 40-pin strip for larger connections.

Major electronics suppliers charge $1.19-$2.60 for identical specs plus shipping. Get the same professional quality at arcade-friendly pricing, shipped with your other build components.
