This is a double-lined spectroscopic binary system with an essentially circular orbit and a period of one week.[5] The primary component is a chemically peculiar star of type CP1,[6] or Am star, with a stellar classification of A8m.[3] Abt and Morrell (1995) classed it as Am(A7/F0/F2),[4] indicating it has the hydrogen lines of an A7 star, the calcium K line of a cooler F0 star, and the metallic kines of an F2 class. It has been mentioned as a potential variable star.[9] The star has 3.6[1] times the girth of the Sun and is radiating 38 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7568 K.[1] It has a moderate rotation rate, with a projected rotational velocity of around 16 km/s.[6]

A third component was detected in 1987 using speckle interferometry at an angular separation of 0.04″.[5]
