I hope I'm not out of line by asking this in the public forum.

For my new control cabinet I've designed some custom PCBs to make wiring a little easier. Basically some compact DB-25/15/9 breakout boards and another board to simplify the wiring for a few self holding relays. All have been designed to take 3.5mm pitch screw connectors but since I can be a little persnickety about things being the same I was wondering if there are some part numbers for the PCB headers & plug in terminals used on the mesa board ie: the green\orange connector on the 7i76.
I've had a look at some products from Dinkle, Weidmuller & Phoenix Contact but can't seem to find something that suit.

Just a rendering from Kicad.

For example 5-pin twin:
15EDGK-3.5-05P-14-00AH
15EDGLC-3.5-05P-14-00AH or 15EDGRC-3.5-05P-14-00AH

Thanks
Close but not quite, the end overhang, if you measure from the centre of the last pin, is more than half the pin pitch. So unlike the one mesa uses you wont be able to stack say, a 4 way, a 2 way and a 4 way plug in a 10 way header.
Upon further searching Wurth may have the one's I'm after. In the pdf it's the 1.75mm dimension I'm talking about.

Beagle, They are a pretty standard connector. I have bought RS components plugs that fit the Mesa 7i76e sockets. Lete me look for you..

Also I'm keen to know where you make your circuit boards. I need one too!

These are cheap and fit the Mesa boards so just use their mate

Thanks Rod,
Still close but has the same issue as the ones aleksamc mentioned.

I've used www.elecrow.com/ about 3 times in the past not including my current order, really happy with the quality and time from order to delivery is pretty good. Haven't ordered anything over the size of a BBB size board.
I used jlcpcb.com/ as they had a offer for first time orders. Quite happy with them as well.
