I was going through some of my spare parts today, and (re)discovered a
cache of old 5.25" media. Among other things, I found a quantity of
DSHD disks in Tyvek sleeves, mostly never-used old stock that appears
to be in good condition. Are these disks usable on Apple ][ systems?

Hi. I wouldn't use them. I have never heard of a drive for an Apple II
that can use them. Their magnetic strength is different. They can be
used on a 1.2MB floppy disk drive in a PC.
Hope this helps,
