18mm diameter holes so they can accept most lines that you are likely to have on board without needing a shackle.

Extended arm assists grabbing the chain in the first place and upward slope helps to retain it.

The trip-line hole is located to allow the hook to be steered towards the chain and keep the hook 'open'.  It is also located so that it requires a modest pull to activate the trip action and therefore minimise the chances of an accidental 'trip'.

Size approx 200mm x 150mm (8in x 6in).
