Hi,

Could you please let me know the name of the spacer shown in the picture? I want to find it in Mouser or Digikey. Many thanks.

Welcome to AAC.

Those appear to be breakable .1” headers with the pins pulled out. The angle of the photo doesn’t let me be sure but I have done similar things. The pins are easily pulled from the body of the header.

If they aren’t it surely looks like the idea would work in any case.

Looks to me like the pins are there. Bottom one soldered onto the board and top one plugged into the bottom one.
I thought that originally as well but decided that headers sans pins could be used as a spacer for a component with long leads. That’s what I decided the “top one” was, a component with long leads.

Thank you so much Ya’akov.
