The truncated pentakis dodecahedron is a convex polyhedron constructed as a truncation of the pentakis dodecahedron. It is Goldberg polyhedron GV(3,0), with pentagonal faces separated by an edge-direct distance of 3 steps.

The pentakis dodecahedron is the dual of the truncated icosahedron, with face configuration 5.6.6.
