HD 112028 is an evolved star in the northern constellation of Camelopardalis. It has spectral peculiarities that have been interpreted as a shell, and also relatively weak magnesium and silicon lines. Its spectral class has been variously assigned between B9 and A2, and its luminosity class between a subgiant and bright giant. [8]
