Disclaimer: LED Lighting Supply is not responsible for improper loading of light fixtures or other attachments, improper use, or foundation design of light poles. We act solely as a supplier of lighting solutions, including metal halide replacement fixtures and parking lot light poles. Final pole assembly and installation are the responsibility of the purchaser.
Dimensions and specifications for round or square composite light poles are subject to change without notice. Please refer to the current data sheet for the most up-to-date specifications. Custom sizing is available only for large-quantity orders. Pole caps may be used in place of other mounting options when required.
Composite light poles are covered by a 15-year workmanship warranty, which warrants that the poles are free from manufacturing defects-including weld and structural integrity issues-at the time of shipment. Any pole found to be defective, upon examination, during normal use and service within 15 years from the date of shipment will be repaired or replaced at our discretion. This warranty does not cover damage resulting from external factors, misuse, or normal wear and tear.

Product Overview
This 20-foot above grade round fiberglass light pole is designed for direct burial installation with a total length of 25 feet, including a 5-foot burial depth. The pole features a tapered profile with a 6-inch base diameter reducing to 5.3 inches at the tip, constructed entirely from fiberglass with an acrylic enamel finish.
The complete assembly weighs 80 pounds, making it substantially lighter than steel or aluminum poles of comparable height. Available in bronze as the standard color option, with custom colors available. This pole is engineered for high wind zone applications with published EPA ratings at wind speeds up to 160 mph.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole is appropriate for parking lots, pathways, building perimeters, and site lighting applications where a 20-foot mounting height meets the project requirements. The direct burial installation method eliminates the need for anchor bolt foundations, which simplifies site preparation in locations where concrete work is difficult or cost-prohibitive.
Fiberglass construction makes this pole suitable for coastal environments, chemical exposure areas, and other locations where corrosion resistance is a primary concern. The high wind zone ratings support installation in hurricane-prone regions and other areas subject to severe weather events.
Performance and Functional Considerations
The Effective Projected Area ratings determine what fixture and arm combinations can be safely mounted at different wind speed requirements. At 70 mph wind speed, the pole supports an EPA of 12. At 100 mph, the supported EPA drops to 7.5. For 130 mph wind zones, the EPA limit is 5.5, and at 160 mph, the pole supports fixtures with an EPA of 3 or less.
These EPA values must be matched against the combined EPA of the selected luminaire, mounting arm, and any additional hardware. Exceeding the rated EPA for your wind zone creates a structural risk. Verify fixture EPA values before finalizing pole and luminaire pairings for any high wind zone installation.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Direct burial installation requires excavating to the specified 5-foot depth and backfilling according to soil conditions and local requirements. The 80-pound weight allows for handling and positioning with minimal equipment compared to metal poles of similar height. No anchor bolts, base covers, or foundation templates are required.
The acrylic enamel finish protects the fiberglass surface from UV degradation and weathering. Fiberglass does not rust, corrode, or require galvanic protection, which reduces long-term maintenance compared to steel poles in corrosive environments. The buried section does not require additional coatings or cathodic protection.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Once installed, this pole serves as a permanent mounting structure for area lighting fixtures. The tapered round profile accepts standard tenon-mounted fixtures and arms sized for the 5.3-inch tip diameter. Wiring is routed internally through the hollow pole shaft to the handhole or fixture mounting point.
Facility operators typically select this pole when site conditions favor direct burial over anchor bolt foundations, or when corrosion resistance is needed for the full service life without ongoing protective maintenance. The 15-year warranty period aligns with the expected service life of the fiberglass structure under normal use conditions.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole carries a 15-year warranty. The fiberglass construction is non-conductive, which provides an additional safety margin in applications where electrical contact with the pole structure is a concern.
Wind load ratings are published for 70, 100, 130, and 160 mph wind speeds. These ratings must be matched to local building code requirements and the EPA of the selected fixture assembly. The pole is not rated beyond 160 mph or for EPA values exceeding those specified at each wind speed threshold.
