Looking for a 10mm 3x screw terminal

Name of the part
Screw terminal

Previous work, similar parts
Standard screw terminal has pin spacing of 0.1-0.3 inch. I need a 0.4 inch (10mm)

Please see attached design

Datasheet
The dimensions are in previous picture. The components are widely available in china shops (ie 5 Stks/partij Kf1000 10.0Mm 2P 3P 4P Pcb Schroef Klemmenblok Connector Pitch 10Mm Kf1000 2/3/4P Kan Worden Gesplitst - AliExpress 13).
These terminalbloks are interconnectable. I need these connectors for a 12v car system i’m building. For higher currents I need to adapt the pin holes ( to 1.8 mm) and also the pad diameter. If i use the 5 pin 0.2" (where this adaptation is possible) and leave pin 2 en 4 unconnected I have to little ‘flesh’ to make a proper (=high current) connection.

This usually does not apply to breakout boards.

Do you want the 3x (which is presumably 3 terminals) or the 4x in the data sheet?

edit

Assuming you wanted a 3 position terminal block as stated this part should do what you want.

As always before ordering boards print the pcb footprint out at 1:1 scale and compare it to a real part. The holes are 0.087in.

(Sorry, I didn’t pay attention and initially replied to the mail.)

I am in need of the 3x terminal. But IMHO if you a able to extend the existing screw terminal on this .4 pin distance I think it would help others as well. Rember, the interconnect between the terminals is perfectly. So with a 2,3 and 4 you can make any length terminal.

But for now the 3 pin will do my job. Tnx

It works great. Thank you. I tired a few times to adjust on myself (by deleting pin 2 and 4 of a 5 pin) but I noticed at about every iteration Fritzing creates a new component and to increase the confusion, it deletes the older after closing of fritzing. In the part editor you can load and show the svg and it would help if you can also edit and write back the same instance at once.

I think I’ll see if anyone asks first. I was thinking of making a 1 pin part (although that doesn’t appear to exist in practice) which would allow you to make any size you want by duplicating and moving the new part by the pitch. The best answer would be to put it in parts factory but that would require a code change to implement and I don’t think that is likely.

I’ve been struggling a lot for finding and ultimately (trying to) creating missing components in vain. So much that I went looking for other affordable pcb editors. I think Fritzing has a nice (intuitive) combination of schema editor en PCB design. Even the breadboard is helpful as you can build your design and discover what is missing or could be done different. 20 odd years ago I was using Layo1 and Orcad. Layo1 was nice, Orcad real good, but now beyond my financial scope.
Glad I discovered this support site. If you don’t mind I’ll come back :wink: Tnx!

A google search of the form “fritzing part part_name” where part_name is the part you want will find most existing parts. If there isn’t one, a post in category parts help with a web site with the physical dimensions and connector information is likely to get you a part, and we are always happy to help you make parts as we need more people capable of making parts.
