Disclaimer: LED Lighting Supply is not responsible for improper loading (ie what is mounted to the pole), use, or foundation design of light poles. Dimensions and specifications of poles are subject to change without notice.
Please be advised that our steel poles are covered solely by a 1 year workmanship warranty, which ensures that the poles are free from defects from the manufacturing process, such as welds and structural integrity, for a period of one year from the date of purchase. This warranty does not cover damage resulting from external factors, misuse, or normal wear and tear.

Product Overview
This square steel light pole provides 20 feet of above-grade height with 5 feet embedded below grade. The 4-inch-wide, 11-gauge steel shaft is configured for direct-burial installation.
A 2 3/8-inch tenon is included for fixture mounting. This pole is commonly used where a compact direct-burial support structure is needed for parking lot lighting, roadway lighting, and commercial site lighting.
Core Performance and Output
Structural performance is defined by the pole’s effective projected area, or EPA, rating at each wind speed. The pole is rated for 10.2 EPA at 70 mph, 9.3 EPA at 80 mph, 7.5 EPA at 90 mph, 6.2 EPA at 100 mph, 4.2 EPA at 110 mph, 3.6 EPA at 120 mph, and 2.2 EPA at 130 mph.
Fixture weight, fixture EPA, mounting hardware, and local wind exposure must remain within the applicable pole rating. Higher wind speeds reduce the available EPA capacity for the mounted fixture assembly.
Adjustability and Control Options
This is a fixed-height direct-burial pole with a 20-foot above-grade height. The shaft does not provide height adjustment after installation.
The included 2 3/8-inch tenon establishes the fixture mounting interface. Lighting controls are determined by the fixture and control components selected for the installation, not by the pole.
Longevity and Reliability
The steel shaft has a hot-dip galvanized and powder-coated finish. The finish is bronze.
Direct-burial installation places the lower 5 feet of the pole below grade. The pole carries a 1-year warranty.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
This pole uses an 11-gauge square steel shaft with a 4-inch width. Total pole height is 25 feet, including the below-grade section.
The pole weighs 167 pounds. Its direct-burial configuration does not use an anchor base.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole fits exterior lighting layouts that use a 20-foot above-grade mounting height and a direct-burial foundation approach. It is suited to sites where fixture EPA and wind exposure can be matched to the published ratings.
- parking lot lighting
- commercial site lighting
- roadway lighting
- area lighting
- campus lighting
- industrial yard lighting
- dealership lighting
The galvanized and powder-coated steel construction supports exterior pole installation. Final suitability depends on the fixture assembly EPA, fixture weight, wind-speed requirement, and direct-burial site conditions.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Installation requires setting 5 feet of the pole below grade, leaving 20 feet above grade. The direct-burial section must be installed plumb before the fixture is mounted to the tenon.
Verify the 2 3/8-inch tenon interface against the fixture mounting requirement before installation. The completed pole and fixture assembly must remain within the published EPA rating for the applicable wind speed.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
In parking lot lighting, commercial site lighting, and area lighting layouts, the pole establishes a fixed 20-foot fixture mounting height. Pole locations are arranged around the required lighting area, roadway alignment, or site perimeter.
Campus lighting, industrial yard lighting, and dealership lighting layouts typically require pole placement to follow circulation paths, parking areas, or open exterior zones. Spacing and layout vary with the fixture distribution, target light levels, fixture EPA, and wind-speed requirement.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
No certifications are provided in the supplied product data.
The pole includes a 1-year warranty. Fixture weight and EPA must be evaluated against the pole’s wind-specific EPA ratings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the installed height of this pole above grade?
A: The pole provides 20 feet of height above grade. Its total length is 25 feet, with 5 feet below grade.
Q: What fixture mounting interface is included?
A: The pole includes a 2 3/8-inch tenon.
Q: What is the EPA rating at 100 mph?
A: The EPA rating is 6.2 at 100 mph.
Q: How should pole layout planning account for wind loading?
A: Fixture EPA and fixture weight must be evaluated against the pole’s EPA rating at the applicable wind speed. The available EPA decreases as wind speed increases.
Application Questions and Clarification
Q: Is this pole intended for direct-burial installation?
A: Yes. The pole is configured for direct burial with 5 feet below grade.
Q: Can this pole be used for parking lot lighting and roadway lighting?
A: Parking lot lighting and roadway lighting are valid applications. The fixture assembly must remain within the published EPA rating for the applicable wind speed.
Q: What should be confirmed before using this pole for industrial yard lighting?
A: Confirm the fixture mounting connection, fixture weight, fixture EPA, applicable wind speed, and direct-burial installation requirements.
