14 Arietis (abbreviated 14 Ari) is a star[7] in the constellation of Aries. 14 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 4.98,[2] which means it is visible to the naked eye. Based upon a measured annual parallax shift of 11.30 mas,[1] is it located at a distance of approximately 290 light-years (89 parsecs), give or take a 30 light-year margin of error.

This is an astrometric binary system.[7] The primary has a stellar classification of F2 III,[3] suggesting that it is a giant star. Despite being an evolved star with four[4] times the radius of the Sun, it is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 139.6 km/s.[4] This is causing a pronounced equatorial bulge, with the radius of the star along the equator being 24% greater than the radius at the poles.[8] The star shines at 32[4] times the luminosity of the Sun, with this energy being radiated from its outer atmosphere at an effective temperature of 6,761 K.[4] This heat gives it the yellow-white hued glow of an F-type star.[9]
