Annotation	We estimated asteroid 1992 SK's physical properties from radar and lightcurve observations obtained during February-March 1999. We estimated the asteroid's period to be 7.3182 +/- 0.0003 h and its pole direction to be at ecliptic longitude, latitude = (99 +/- 5 deg, -3 +/- 5 deg). The asteroid is about 1.4 km in maximum extent and mildly asymmetric, with an elongation of about 1.5 and relatively subdued topography.
