HD 164712, also known as HR 6731 is an orange hued star located in the southern constellation of Apus. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.86,[2] making it faintly visible to the naked eye if viewed under ideal conditions. Parallax measurements place the object at a distance of Script error: No such module "convert".,[1] and it is currently receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of Script error: No such module "val"..[6]

HD 164712 has a stellar classification of K2 III, indicating that it is a red giant. David Stanley Evans gave it a slightly cooler class of K3 III.[13] Gaia Data Release 3 models place it on the bump of red giant branch, a period of temporary contraction.[3] At present it has 1.15 times the mass of the Sun[7] but at an age of 4.54 billion years,[3] it has expanded to 9.09 times its girth.[8] It shines with a luminosity of Script error: No such module "val". from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of Script error: No such module "val"..[9] HD 164712 is a thick disk star with an iron abundance 73% above solar level.[10] This makes it metal enriched. Like most giants, it spins slowly, with its projected rotational velocity being lower than Script error: No such module "val"..[11]

HR 6731 has two faint companions. Component B is a 13th magnitude object separated Script error: No such module "val". away along a position angle of 299°.[14] Component C is a 14th magnitude star Script error: No such module "val". away along a position angle of 109°.[14] The first one is a background object while the other one appears to be physically related.[14] As for HD 164712, it shows indications of an infrared excess, suggesting there may be a dusty disk in orbit around the star.[15][16]
