It orbits the Sun at an average distance of 2.6 astronomical units (AU), with an eccentricity of 0.13 and an inclination of 11.5 degrees relative to the ecliptic plane. The spectral type of 13162 is unknown, but its albedo, or reflectivity, is estimated to be around 0.25. The asteroid's rotation period is approximately 10.5 hours. As of now, no moons have been discovered orbiting 13162. The asteroid is named after the year of its discovery, 1995.
