Description:
The 20 Pin 0.3 Inch DIL IC Socket – Pack of 5 provides a practical and protective solution for mounting dual in-line package (DIL) ICs with 20 pins. Designed with a standard 0.3 inch (7.62 mm) row spacing and 2.54 mm pin pitch, these sockets are ideal for use with through-hole PCBs and breadboards. They allow for easy insertion and removal of ICs, which reduces the risk of heat damage during soldering and enables quick replacement or prototyping adjustments.
Built using thermally stable and durable plastic housing, the sockets are fitted with tin- or gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts to ensure long-lasting conductivity and corrosion resistance. These sockets are frequently used in educational kits, hobby electronics, and professional PCB assemblies where flexibility and IC protection are key. This 5-pack provides a cost-effective way to enhance circuit reliability and simplify maintenance.
