Our 20 Foot Class 6 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-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 6 Southern Yellow Pine wood pole, pressure treated with CCA preservative and manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. The pole is grown, debarked, and treated in the United States and meets American Wood Preservers Association standards for protection against termites, decay, and rot.
The total pole height is 20 feet, with 16 feet above grade and a 4-foot direct burial depth. Pole weight ranges from 300 to 400 pounds. Minimum circumference at the top is 17 inches, with a minimum circumference of 21 inches measured 6 feet from the butt.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole is sized for applications where a 16-foot above-grade mounting height meets the site requirements. Sports fields, baseball fields, and utility installations are common uses. The Class 6 rating and cross arm capacity determine what can be mounted and how much load the pole will support.
The CCA treatment makes this pole appropriate for direct burial in soil without additional protection. Sites with exposure to ground moisture, insects, or conditions that cause untreated wood to rot are where the preservative treatment matters most.
Performance and Functional Considerations
This pole supports a maximum of two cross arms total, with one cross arm per side. Each cross arm can carry up to 240 pounds of attached weight. That capacity includes fixtures, mounting hardware, and any other components installed on the arm.
Minimum top diameter is 5.411 inches. Minimum diameter at 6 feet from the butt is 6.684 inches. These dimensions are relevant when selecting brackets, clamps, or hardware that must fit the pole profile at specific heights.
Installation and Long-Term Use
The pole is designed for direct burial with 4 feet below grade. Pole weight of 300 to 400 pounds requires equipment for handling and setting. Cross arms are not attached at the factory and must be installed on-site after delivery.
CCA pressure treatment protects against below-grade deterioration. The preservative penetrates the wood under pressure to resist termite damage, fungal decay, and rot over the service life of the pole.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Once installed, this pole provides a fixed 16-foot above-grade structure for mounting lights or other equipment. The cross arm positions are determined during installation based on the application and fixture layout. With one cross arm allowed per side and a 240-pound limit per arm, fixture count and weight must be planned before the arms are attached.
Poles at this height are often used for area lighting where taller structures are not required or where overhead clearance and sight lines need to stay lower. The direct burial design eliminates the need for a separate foundation or anchor base.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. Preservative treatment meets American Wood Preservers Association standards.
This product carries a 1-year warranty.
