Featuring 6mm pins spaced at 2.5mm, it ensures perfect compatibility and reliable connections, making it an essential upgrade for any serious Pi enthusiast. ## Description Give yourself a lift with this 2x20 female socket header that has slightly longer than usual pins. You can plug this into your Raspberry Pi GPIO port and then plug a HAT or Bonnet or Phat on top. Especially useful for Bonnets that have slim headers on the bottom, but you want them to clear some of the components on the Pi, or fit into a case nicer. The header body is a standard 8.5mm. The pins are 6mm tall, so they're securely plug into socket headers like male-pin type ones. You'll get one header per order! ## Features - Pin Length: 6mm - Pin Spacing: 2.5mm / 0.1" - Pin Thickness: 0.6mm / 0.02" - Product Dimensions: 51.5mm x 14.0mm x 5.0mm / 2.0" x 0.6" x 0.2" - Product Weight: 4.1g / 0.1oz ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Wireless Type | 802.11n | | Brand | Adafruit | | Item model number | 4079 | | Item Weight | 0.176 ounces | | Product Dimensions | 2 x 0.2 x 0.6 inches | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 2 x 0.2 x 0.6 inches | | Processor Brand | Broadcom | | Number of Processors | 1 | | Manufacturer | Adafruit | | ASIN | B07PPD25MK | | Date First Available | March 12, 2019 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Adafruit - **Connectivity Technology:** GPIO - **CPU Manufacturer:** Broadcom - **Wireless Communication Standard:** 802.11n - **Compatible Devices:** Raspberry Pi B+, Pi 2, & Pi 3 ## Images ![Adafruit 4079 2 x 20 Socket Riser Header for Raspberry Pi Hats and Bonnets - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/613EpPHo5+L.jpg) ![Adafruit 4079 2 x 20 Socket Riser Header for Raspberry Pi Hats and Bonnets - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61vh7jimRgL.jpg) ![Adafruit 4079 2 x 20 Socket Riser Header for Raspberry Pi Hats and Bonnets - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511EQPW8TnL.jpg) ![Adafruit 4079 2 x 20 Socket Riser Header for Raspberry Pi Hats and Bonnets - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61lV9ErLi3L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what I needed *by M***B on March 5, 2025* Gave enough clearance so the hat won’t touch the metal heat sink housing below. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality. *by B*** on November 11, 2024* Feels sturdy, works great ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does what it is designed for. *by B***B on July 14, 2024* Works well and arrived on time --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/122997205-adafruit-4079-2-x-20-socket-riser-header-for-raspberry](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/122997205-adafruit-4079-2-x-20-socket-riser-header-for-raspberry) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
