Essential Connectors for Pi Projects
Perfect fit for Raspberry Pi GPIO headers. Solid build and tight grip on all pins. Ideal for custom hats and embedded builds. No bent pins—arrived in great shape!

Excellent fit
These fit and hold very securely. Now that I have them I find more uses for them and it really offers a lot of flexibility to designs to extend and avoid clutter. The height choice is perfect

Works great with Pi 5, passive cooler, and FREENOVE Complete GPIO Starter Kit
If you're new to all of this like me, you might have bought the raspberry pi 5, the passive cooling fan, and the freenove complete Starter Kit to play around with programming and electronics. Unfortunately, the passive cooler gets in the way off the connection between the chords of the freenove's GPIO extension board and the Pi's GPIO pins. This expansion board solves that problem, by extending the GPIO pin access beyond the passive cooler without getting in the way. It also splits the pi's GPIO pins between two different sets of connectors, which allows you to install hats on the upper set of pins while still having access to the extension board with the side set of pins. YRMV, but for me it works!

Good with some caveats
I got this component because the offical fan on my Pi 5 is conflicting with some of my accessories, specifically hats.This is nice when it comes to duplicating pins and also good for remedying the reason above.There is a small design issue in the solder points which lightly touch the fan, but it seems to be negligible since there is no continuity from these solder points touching the fan. The other issue I have is that this seems to be very hard to insert and take off for me, I intend for this component to stay on indefinitely for my pi so this isn't much of a big deal for me, but it can be an issue with people who want to hot swap their components since the force required to insert and remove this from the pi is a lot. It has caused a pin on my gpio headed to bend but thankfully the pins on the pi are strong enough to be bent back with pliers.

Low clearance
Because it uses surface mount parts the pins of the female header come in contact with the official raspberry pi 5 active cooler.

GPIO header for raspberry pi
No not only does it protect the pins and your pie it also makes it so much easier to wire anything I’m glad I bought it
