Y Tauri is a semiregular variable star. Its class is SRb, and its primary pulsation cycle lasts 241.5 days.[2] No long secondary period has been identified.[11] It has a radius of 219 R☉, an effective surface temperature of 3,217 K, and a bolometric luminosity of 4,489 L☉. Its mass is calculated to be 4.3 M☉.

Y Tauri is losing mass at 4×10−7 M☉/yr, and is surrounded by dust at a temperature of 1,900 K.[3]
