The Proto Screw Shield is an expansion board designed to make electrical connections easier and more secure in projects with Arduino UNO and MEGA2560. Thanks to its screw terminal connectors, it allows thicker wires than those typically used in prototyping to be fixed in place, making it ideal for industrial applications, automation and finished products.
Key features:
- Secure screw connection: Wires are firmly secured with screws in the sockets, ensuring a stable connection resistant to vibration.
- Standard 3,81 mm terminals: Compatible with Arduino UNO and MEGA2560 boards, ensuring maximum compatibility.
- Large I/O connection area: Makes it easy to connect multiple devices and sensors.
- Double-sided prototyping area: Allows components to be mounted and soldered directly onto the board to develop custom circuits.
- Clear pin silkscreen: Easily identifies each connection to avoid mistakes.
- Female headers for stacking other Shields: Compatible with other modules to expand functionality.
- Reset button and LED on pin D13: Built-in functions to make testing and resets easier.
- Mounting holes: Allows the Shield to be secured to the Arduino board with screws for greater stability.
Typical uses: Ideal for developers and professionals who need a robust solution for prototyping and assembly in electronics projects, industrial automation and end products that require secure, long-lasting connections.
Compatibility: Compatible exclusively with Arduino UNO and MEGA2560 boards, ensuring a perfect fit and full functionality.

Customer Questions & Answers
What advantages does the Proto Screw Shield offer over standard prototyping shields without screw terminals?
The Proto Screw Shield allows cables to be secured using screw connectors, improving mechanical and electrical security compared with conventional headers. This feature supports thicker cables, which is useful in industrial environments or prototypes exposed to vibration. The main drawback is a slightly larger size and slower connection/disconnection compared with standard jumpers.
What are the main materials, dimensions and weight of the shield?
The shield is made from double-sided FR4 fibreglass PCB, standard 3.81 mm screw connectors, female headers and basic components (button, LED). Its typical dimensions are 70 mm x 54 mm x 20 mm (installed), and the approximate weight is 40 g. Minor variations may occur depending on the batch.
What compatibility does this shield have with other versions of Arduino or clones?
The shield fits directly onto original or clone Arduino UNO and MEGA2560 boards that follow the same pin layout. It is not physically compatible with boards of a different form factor (for example, Nano, Leonardo, Due) without specific adapters.
What care should be taken to maintain good conductivity and durability in the screw terminals?
It is recommended to avoid excessively long stripped wire ends and to check the screw tightness regularly to prevent poor contact or loosening due to vibration. For harsh environments, periodic contact cleaning is advised and prolonged moisture should be avoided, as the screws are nickel-plated steel and could rust if directly exposed.
Does the Proto Screw Shield comply with any electrical or safety standards, and are spare parts available if the terminals are damaged?
The product is intended for prototyping and education, so it does not carry specific certifications (such as CE or guaranteed factory RoHS). The screw terminals are standard 3.81 mm parts, easily replaceable using general electronics spares. Check the connector datasheet for fine adjustments if you carry out replacements.
Which Arduino boards is the Proto Screw Shield compatible with?
It is compatible exclusively with Arduino UNO and MEGA2560 boards.
Can I use thicker wires with this Shield?
Yes, thanks to its screw terminal connectors, it allows thicker wires to be secured than those used in traditional prototyping.
Does it include a prototyping area?
Yes, it has a double-sided prototyping area for mounting and soldering components directly.
Can the Shield be fixed to the Arduino board?
Yes, it has mounting holes for screw fixing to secure the Shield to the Arduino board.
What accessories are included in the package?
The package includes 1 unit of the Proto Screw Shield with screw terminal connectors.
