Black, 40 Pin ZIF Socket

The lever mechanism is smooth and clicks into place with precise feedback, making chip insertion effortless. I appreciated the tight 2.54mm pin spacing—no bent pins on my first try. This saved me from the usual frustration of delicate IC handling.

Finally, a socket that doesn't fight you—the lever clicks into place with just the right amount of resistance. I’ve been using it for a few programming projects and haven’t bent a single pin yet.

The lever mechanism makes inserting delicate ICs effortless, and the 2.54mm pitch fits standard DIP sockets perfectly. I've already used it for programming a few chips without any bent pins.
