DIY USB Cable Parts - Straight Type A Jack

If you're into DIY cable-making, these USB adapters are perfect for you! Creating custom USB cables has never been this simple. Just pick one of our ribbon cables and use the flex cable clips to swap our USB adapters at each end. There are numerous options available. This version features only a Straight USB Type A Female Socket. Note that the ribbon cable and other adapters are not included. Explore all the choices in our shop to build your own custom cable. We tested these DIY cable kits with a Circuit Playground and a computer USB port, and they worked well even with longer ribbon lengths. However, they're not as durable or shielded as pre-made cables.

Using these DIY USB cable parts is easy. First, get a ribbon cable from our shop. Then, use the flex cable clips to attach the Straight USB Type A Female Socket adapter at each end of the ribbon cable. You can switch and swap different adapters to make your custom cable. Remember, the ribbon cable and other adapters are not included, so you'll need to pick them separately from our store. When testing, we found these kits work well with a Circuit Playground and a computer USB port, even with longer ribbons. But keep in mind, they're not as tough or shielded as ready - made cables. To maintain them, avoid bending the cables too sharply and store them in a dry place when not in use.
