Delivery is made with a flatbed truck and the customer is responsible for offloading. Offloading requires a fork lift or appropriate similar vehicle to offload - customer supplied. Customers are responsible for any costs associated with delivery rescheduling because of improper scheduling or not having the proper offloading equipment or area to store poles available at the time of delivery. Please contact a sales representative prior to purchasing to ensure all the project details are clear.
Pricing: Does not include cost of shipping. Shipping is available to the lower 48 USA states. We can supply a budgetary shipping quote or a firm shipping quote that is good for 14 days.
Disclaimer: LED Lighting Supply is not responsible for improper loading (ie what is mounted to the pole), installation costs, or foundation design of light poles. Dimensions and specifications of poles are subject to change without notice but the pole top and butt dimensions will always be within ANSI specifications. Wood poles are the ideal option for most field projects as concrete poles require more frequent maintenance and replacement. While our main product line is southern yellow pine, we at times are able to offer other species including Douglas fir and red pine. CCA treatment generally will result in the poles being free of insects for decades to come.
Please be advised that our wood poles are covered solely by a 1-year workmanship warranty, which ensures that the poles are free from defects from the manufacturing process, 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 is a 20-foot wood pole manufactured from Southern Yellow Pine. The pole is CCA treated for outdoor use and is designed for direct burial installation. It is classified as ANSI Class 1 and is suitable for supporting lighting fixtures in utility and commercial environments.
The pole provides a 16-foot height above grade after installation, with 4 feet of the total length buried below ground. The pole weight ranges from 600 to 800 pounds, depending on the specific piece.
Minimum pole top circumference is 27 inches, with a minimum outside diameter of 8.6 inches at the top. At 6 feet from the butt, the minimum circumference is 31 inches and the outside diameter is 9.8 inches.
The pole is pressure treated with CCA to resist termites, decay, and rot. It is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification and meets American Wood Preservers Association standards.
Where This Product Fits Best
This 20-foot Class 1 wood pole is used in outdoor lighting installations where a direct burial pole is required. It is suitable for utility, commercial, and site lighting applications that require a durable, treated wood structure.
Common installation sites include parking lots, roadways, perimeter lighting, and general area lighting for commercial or industrial properties. The pole is intended for use where a 16-foot mounting height is needed above grade.
It is appropriate for projects where wood poles are preferred or required due to site conditions, local standards, or aesthetic considerations. The CCA treatment supports use in environments where exposure to moisture, soil, and insects is expected.
Performance and Functional Considerations
The pole's ANSI Class 1 rating defines its structural capacity and suitability for supporting lighting fixtures and related equipment. The Southern Yellow Pine construction provides strength and resilience for outdoor use.
CCA treatment extends the service life of the pole by protecting against decay, rot, and termite damage. The direct burial design eliminates the need for a separate base or anchor system.
The 16-foot above-grade height allows for mounting luminaires at a standard elevation for area and roadway lighting. The pole's weight and dimensions should be considered when planning for delivery, handling, and installation equipment.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This pole is installed using direct burial, with 4 feet of the total length set below grade. Proper backfill and compaction are required to ensure stability and long-term performance.
The CCA treatment supports long-term outdoor use by reducing the risk of biological degradation. Routine inspection for physical damage or environmental wear is recommended as part of ongoing maintenance.
Due to the pole's weight, mechanical lifting equipment is typically required for handling and placement. The pole's dimensions and treatment are compatible with standard outdoor lighting hardware and mounting brackets designed for wood poles.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
After installation, this wood pole provides a stable mounting point for area lights, floodlights, or utility fixtures at a 16-foot elevation. The pole's treated surface resists deterioration from soil contact and weather exposure.
Operators can attach lighting hardware directly to the pole using approved wood pole mounting brackets or through-bolts. The pole's diameter and circumference support a range of fixture sizes and mounting configurations.
In day-to-day operation, the pole requires minimal interaction beyond periodic inspection. The treated wood construction is designed to withstand outdoor conditions and support lighting loads as specified by ANSI Class 1.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
