Are there any 1/4" jacks that can be mounted on perfboard hole spacing of 2.54mm(0.1")?

I want to add a solid state FX Loop on my amp.
I would like to mount the board directly to the send/return jack rather than to place the small board separately on the chassis by narrowing the space.
Is there a 1/4 "jack that can be mounted directly on a 2.54mm(0.1") hole-spaced perfboard?

are you looking for something like the cliff jacks part way down the page here:

they have pins so they'd go into a PCB instead of being soldered to like the oens above (PC Lug style)

Very little is impossible to one who has wire, solder, an iron, and a tube of five minute epoxy.

A fully enclosed jack can be neatly epoxied down on its side to a bit of perfboard.
