Phi Fornacis is a single[9] star in the southern constellation of Fornax. It has a white hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.13.[2] The distance to this object is approximately 154 light-years based on parallax,[1] and it is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +19 km/s.[4]

This is an A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A2.5V.[3] Phi Fornacis is 238[5] million years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 117 km/s.[7] It has 2.1[5] times the mass of the Sun and 1.7[6] times the Sun's radius. The star is radiating 17[2] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,449 km/s.[5] It displays an infrared excess, suggesting a circumstellar disk[10] of dust is orbiting the star at a distance of 30.2 AU with a mean temperature of 100 K.[6]
