Our 20 Foot Class 5 CCA Treated Southern Yellow Pine Poles are grown, debarked, and treated in the United States. They are manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. Poles are pressure treated and preservative treated to the latest American Wood Preservers Association standards to prevent damage from termites, decay and rot regardless of the species used.
Our 20 ft round wood poles are perfect for sports fields, baseball fields, and a utility pole project. You can add 1 light arms per side, 2 in total. Each arm can accommodate 240 lbs of lights per arm. Availability can change based on the quantity and length required as different sizes can have different lead times. Our poles are built with durability in mind to ensure long-lasting performance.
Options Available:
Cross Arms (2 per pole, 1 per side) and Mounting Brackets. Customer is responsible for mounting Cross Arm after poles are delivered. Poles do not ship with cross arms attached.
These are the lights we typically mount on the cross arms. Up to 6 lights per arm, not to exceed 240 total pounds of fixtures and hardware.
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 Class 5 wood pole made from Southern Yellow Pine. The pole is CCA treated for durability and is designed for direct burial installation. It is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification and meets Class 5 requirements.
The pole has a total height of 20 feet, with 16 feet above grade and 4 feet below grade when installed. The minimum pole top circumference is 19 inches, and the minimum circumference 6 feet from the butt is 23 inches. The pole weight ranges from 400 to 500 pounds.
Each pole supports up to two cross arms, one per side, with a maximum load of 240 pounds per arm. The pole is suitable for mounting LED lighting fixtures and other utility applications.
Cross arms and mounting brackets are available as options. Cross arms are not attached to the pole at delivery and must be mounted on site.
Where This Product Fits Best
This 20 foot wood pole is used in commercial and municipal lighting projects where direct burial installation is preferred. It is suitable for sports fields, baseball fields, and utility lighting applications.
The pole is designed for outdoor environments where durability and resistance to decay, termites, and rot are required. The CCA treatment extends the service life of the pole in exposed conditions.
It is commonly selected for projects that require mounting multiple LED fixtures on cross arms, with each arm supporting up to 240 pounds of fixtures and hardware.
The pole is appropriate for installations where ANSI Class 5 rating is specified or required by project standards.
Performance and Functional Considerations
The Southern Yellow Pine construction provides strength and stability for mounting lighting fixtures and hardware. The pole is rated to support up to 240 pounds per cross arm, allowing for multiple fixtures per arm as long as the total weight does not exceed this limit.
CCA treatment protects the wood from decay, rot, and termite damage, supporting long-term use in outdoor environments. The direct burial design eliminates the need for separate mounting foundations.
The pole's dimensions and weight should be considered when planning for transport, handling, and installation. The minimum pole top and butt diameters ensure compatibility with standard cross arm and bracket hardware.
All mounting and attachment work, including cross arm installation, must be completed on site after delivery.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This pole is installed using direct burial, with 4 feet of the total 20 foot length below grade and 16 feet above grade. Proper burial depth is required for stability and compliance with ANSI standards.
Cross arms and mounting brackets are installed after the pole is set. The installer is responsible for ensuring that the total load per arm does not exceed 240 pounds, including all fixtures and hardware.
Routine inspection of the pole, cross arms, and mounted fixtures is recommended to monitor for signs of wear, damage, or overloading. The CCA treatment provides long-term resistance to environmental degradation.
Standard lifting and handling equipment is required due to the pole's weight range of 400 to 500 pounds.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
After installation, this pole is used to support LED lighting fixtures mounted on cross arms. You can mount up to two cross arms per pole, one on each side, and each arm can hold multiple fixtures as long as the combined weight does not exceed 240 pounds per arm.
Operators typically use these poles for area lighting in sports fields, parking lots, and utility corridors. The pole's height and load capacity allow for flexible fixture placement to achieve the desired lighting coverage.
Once installed, the pole requires minimal day-to-day interaction beyond routine inspection and maintenance of the mounted fixtures and hardware. The treated wood construction is designed to withstand outdoor exposure over time.

This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification and is rated as Class 5. The CCA treatment meets American Wood Preservers Association standards for resistance to decay, rot, and termites.
The pole carries a 1 year warranty from LED Lighting Supply.
