1.This wire set is ideally suited to connecting between various sockets around a prototyping board such as the MB-102 prototyping board or the connections on shields, both of which feature standard sockets with a pin pitch of 2.54mm. They are solidly constructed to allow repeated use and do not require soldering to maintain a connection.

2.The connectors feature a square design. Unlike rounded jumper wires, the profile allows the wires to be connected to adjacent sockets without causing interference with nearby sockets; so multiple wires can be plugged in side by side.

3.Although supplied as a ribbon of 40 wires, it is easy to tear off individual or groups of wires, allowing you to modify the size of the ribbon to suit your particular project. This helps to prevent tangles of wires obstructing the project. Combining this with the range of 10 colours in the ribbon makes it easy to trace back the source of a wire across a project.
