In six-dimensional geometry, a runcinated 5-simplex is a convex uniform 5-polytope with 3rd order truncations (Runcination) of the regular 5-simplex.

There are 4 unique runcinations of the 5-simplex with permutations of truncations, and cantellations.

Alternate names

• Runcinated hexateron
• Small prismated hexateron (Acronym: spix) (Jonathan Bowers)

The vertices of the runcinated 5-simplex can be most simply constructed on a hyperplane in 6-space as permutations of (0,0,1,1,1,2) or of (0,1,1,1,2,2), seen as facets of a runcinated 6-orthoplex, or a biruncinated 6-cube respectively.
