The 523 is a 3XL version of the 516. To compensate for the additional leverage generated from the extended length I increased the wire diameter by one size, e.g. 523 #10 and 516 #8 have the same wire diameter.
Characteristics
This is a 3X long hook with a 1X gape. It has a down eye and is formed from a heavy weight wire. It is be available in sizes #4 to #14.
