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 round fiberglass light pole is designed for direct burial installation with a total length of 24 feet, providing 20 feet of height above grade once the 4-foot burial depth is achieved. The pole features a tapered round profile, measuring 5.75 inches at the base and 5.3 inches at the tip.
Fiberglass construction keeps the pole weight at 57 pounds, which is notably lighter than comparable steel or aluminum poles at this height. The exterior is finished with acrylic enamel and is available in bronze, black, white, gray, or custom colors.
Where This Product Fits Best
A 20-foot mounting height suits parking areas, pathways, building perimeters, and outdoor spaces where light needs to reach at moderate height without requiring anchor bolt foundations. Direct burial installation eliminates the need for a separate base or foundation pour, making this pole appropriate for sites where below-grade concrete work is preferred over surface-mounted anchor bolts.
Fiberglass is non-conductive and does not corrode the way steel can, which makes it suitable for coastal areas, chemical exposure environments, or locations where rust and galvanic corrosion are concerns.
Performance and Functional Considerations
Wind load capacity is expressed in effective projected area ratings. At 70 mph wind speed, this pole supports fixtures up to 5.5 EPA. That value decreases to 5 EPA at 80 mph, 4 EPA at 90 mph, and 3 EPA at 100 mph. Fixture selection must account for local wind speed requirements and the combined EPA of all mounted equipment.
The 57-pound weight allows two workers to handle and position the pole without lifting equipment in most cases. The tapered design provides structural rigidity while reducing material weight toward the top.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Direct burial installation requires excavating to at least 4 feet below grade, with the pole set in compacted backfill or concrete encasement depending on soil conditions. The full 24-foot length must be accounted for during transport and staging on site.
Fiberglass does not require repainting for corrosion protection the way steel poles do. The acrylic enamel finish provides UV resistance and color retention over the pole''s service life. Color matching for replacement or expansion projects can be addressed through the custom color option.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Facility operators typically choose this pole where a 20-foot mounting height meets area lighting needs without requiring equipment access for maintenance at greater heights. The direct burial method is often selected when concrete foundation work is already planned or when anchor bolt assemblies are not practical for the site.
Fiberglass poles are commonly installed at sites where corrosion resistance is a priority, such as near saltwater, in chemical storage areas, or in humid climates. The lighter weight also simplifies pole replacement compared to steel alternatives.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole carries a 15-year warranty.
Fiberglass construction provides non-conductive properties, which is a consideration for installations near electrical infrastructure or in areas where grounding requirements differ from metal poles.
