CL Draconis is a single[ star in the northern circumpolar constellation of Draco. It can be viewed with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 4.96.][ The distance to this star, as determined from its annual stellar parallax of ,][ is 110 . It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −11 km/s.][ The star has a relatively high proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at the rate of /yr.][

Based upon a stellar classification of F0 IV,[ this is an aging F-type star subgiant star that has consumed the hydrogen at its stellar core. It is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 165 km/s,][ giving it an Oblate spheroid with an equatorial bulge that is estimated to be 8% larger than the polar radius.][
CL Draconis is a Delta Scuti variable, changing brightness with an amplitude of 0.010 magnitude over a period of .][ CL Dra has 1.68][ times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 10.2][ times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,439 K.][

It was transferred from Draco to Quadrans Muralis. Later when the International Astronomical Union officially recognised constellations, Quadrans Muralis became obsolete, so this star was moved back to Draco.
