None exist, as far as I am aware - they would have no use in commercial manufacturing.

You can easily get terminal adapters for breadboards, just a small PCB with both standard terminals and header pins to suit the breadboard.

Or you could make you own, with bits of stripboard & add terminals and pins.

???
All those are standard solder pin PCB terminals, not ones intended to plug directly in to a solderless breadboard, or capable of being used like that.

indeed, legs are <= 3..5 mm: too short for solderless board

Just solder these https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/amphenol-fci/20021111-00010T4LF/2209072 to standard -0.1" screw terminals.

Generally, they can be cut. Use two row for stability.

Good idea but the exact headers in your image are 0.05inch. Did you make a selection mistake or do you pull out every other pin?
