Benefits:
- Lightweight, easier to unload and install, saving on labor costs
- Does not rot, rust, or corrode.
- Non-conductive
- Does not break down with age, coated in 25-year UV protective paint
- Stronger than equivalent steel in compression and tension, providing excellent durability and longevity in high wind conditions
- Designed to bend, not break, meaning that poles can naturally bend due to weather conditions and will return to their original form
- Fire resistance: poles do not sustain a flame as there is no fuel source for fire

We are solely a supplier of lighting solutions, metal halide replacement lights, and poles for parking lots. Final pole assembly is the responsibility of the purchaser. Dimensions and specifications of a round or square composite light pole are subject to change without notice. See the data sheet for current pole data charts. Custom sizing is only available for large order quantities. Pole caps are used in place of other mounting options when necessary.
Please be advised that our composite poles are covered solely by a 7-year workmanship warranty, which ensures that the poles are free from defects from the manufacturing process. This warranty does not cover damage resulting from external factors, misuse, or normal wear and tear.
Product Overview
This 18 foot square fiberglass light pole provides an anchor-base support structure for outdoor lighting installations. The 4 inch wide pole has a .205 inch wall gauge, a 7 inch bolt circle, and a 9 1/16 inch square base plate.
The fiberglass construction is non-conductive, fire resistant, and designed to flex under weather loading rather than break. It is commonly configured for outdoor lighting locations where an 18 foot mounting height and high-wind EPA capacity are required.
Core Performance and Output
This pole is rated for an EPA of 18.4 at 70 mph, 13.3 at 80 mph, 9.5 at 90 mph, 6.9 at 100 mph, 5.0 at 110 mph, 3.4 at 120 mph, 2.5 at 130 mph, and 1.1 at 140 mph. Fixture, tenon, bracket, and luminaire EPA values must remain within the applicable wind-speed rating.
The 18 foot height supports lower mounting-height site lighting layouts. The available EPA decreases as design wind speed increases, so high-wind locations require close review of the complete mounted assembly.
Adjustability and Control Options
This is a fixed-height, anchor-base pole with no integrated lighting controls or adjustment mechanism. The pole is supplied with a top cap.
Tenons are sold separately and determine the mounting interface for the selected fixture. Control selection is determined by the fixture installed on the pole, not by the pole itself.
Longevity and Reliability
Fiberglass does not rot, rust, or corrode. The fluoropolymer finish includes 25-year UV protective paint.
The pole is designed to bend under weather conditions and return to its original form. It is fire resistant and does not sustain a flame because there is no fuel source for fire.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The pole is constructed from fiberglass and weighs 47 pounds. Its square profile is 4 inches wide and uses a .205 inch gauge wall.
The anchor base uses a 7 inch bolt circle and a 9 1/16 inch by 9 1/16 inch base plate. Anchor bolts, base covers, and tenons are sold separately.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole fits outdoor lighting layouts that use an 18 foot mounting height and require fiberglass construction with EPA ratings through 140 mph. Its non-conductive and corrosion-resistant construction also supports exposed outdoor conditions.
- baseball field lighting
- softball field lighting
- soccer field lighting
- roadway lighting
- campus lighting
- area lighting
The final installation must account for local wind speed, fixture EPA, tenon configuration, anchor bolts, and foundation design. The pole’s 140 mph EPA rating is limited to 1.1.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This pole installs on an anchor base using separately supplied anchor bolts. Confirm the bolt circle, foundation, fixture mounting hardware, and total EPA loading before installation.
The 47 pound fiberglass construction reduces handling weight during unloading and erection. A separately supplied base cover can be used where a finished base appearance is required.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
In baseball field lighting, softball field lighting, soccer field lighting, roadway lighting, campus lighting, and area lighting layouts, the 18 foot pole height establishes the fixture mounting elevation. Pole locations are arranged around the required lighting area and coordinated with the fixture distribution.
Spacing and pole layout depend on the selected fixture, target light levels, mounting hardware, and site geometry. Higher fixture EPA or higher wind exposure can limit the mounting assembly that can be installed on the pole.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
The fiberglass pole is non-conductive and fire resistant. It is designed to bend under weather loading and return to its original form.
This pole includes a 7-year warranty. No certification information is provided for this product.
