The prongs reflex to the shaft at a 60 degree angle and are set at 90 degrees to each other. The top section of the key is square, pierced to hold the key ring. The ring articulates. The second section is square in cross-section and 3.0 cm in length, joining the first section with a narrower cross-section than the base of the first section. The second section has an inscribed line before the third section joins it. The third section has a smaller square cross-section than the base of the second section.
