This F-type star has a stellar classification of F2IV/V,[3] displaying a blended luminosity class of a main sequence star combined to a more evolved subgiant star. It is 1.5[5] billion years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 36 km/s.[6] The star has 1.68[5] times the mass and 2.43[1] times the radius of the Sun. HD 82785 is radiating 11.7[1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,869 K.[5]
There is a magnitude 9.21 star positioned at an angular separation of 56.0″ along a position angle of 205° from the brighter component, as of 2016. This companion was first reported by W. S. Jacob in 1847.[7]
