HD 35184 is a solitary star in the southern circumpolar constellation Mensa. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.50, which is at the visibility limit for the average naked eye observer under ideal conditions. Located 375 light years away, it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 13.6 km/s.

HD 35184 has a stellar classification of A6 V, indicating that it is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star. At present it has 2.15 times the mass of the Sun and 2.8 times the radius of the Sun. It shines at 24.5 L from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,034 K, giving it a white hue. HD 35184 is 674 million years old – 79.6% through its main sequence lifetime – and spins with a projected rotational velocity of 92 km/s−1.
