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.
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 20 foot Class 6 wood pole is a direct-burial Southern Yellow Pine pole for structural support in approved wood light and utility pole applications. It has a 16 foot height above grade and a 4 foot buried depth.
The pole is CCA treated and manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specifications. Its fixed installation geometry suits projects that require a 20 foot overall pole length with below-grade embedment.
Core Performance and Output
This Class 6 pole provides a 20 foot total length, with 16 feet remaining above grade after the specified 4 foot burial depth. Pole weight is 300 to 400 pounds.
The minimum top circumference is 17 inches, and the minimum circumference 6 feet from the butt is 21 inches. Minimum outside diameter is 5.4 inches at the top and 6.7 inches at 6 feet from the butt.
Structural loading, fixture weight, wind exposure, and attachment details must be evaluated for the specific installation. The supplied data does not establish an EPA rating or fixture support limit.
Adjustability and Control Options
This is a fixed-height wood pole with no adjustable sections, lighting controls, or electrical components included. The above-grade height is established by the direct-burial installation depth.
Any fixture controls, electrical equipment, or utility attachments are separate from the pole. Their configuration must match the planned installation.
Longevity and Reliability
The Southern Yellow Pine pole is pressure treated with CCA preservative treatment. The treatment is intended to prevent damage from termites, decay, and rot.
The pole is treated to the latest American Wood Preservers Association standards stated in the supplied product information. Warranty coverage is one year.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The pole is made from Southern Yellow Pine grown, debarked, and treated in the United States. It is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specifications.
Its 300 to 400 pound weight requires appropriate handling equipment and a planned setting process. Direct burial is the specified installation method.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole fits wood light and utility pole projects requiring a 20 foot overall height and direct-burial installation. The Class 6 configuration aligns with selected sports field, roadway, agricultural property, and utility distribution applications.
- football field lighting
- soccer field lighting
- baseball field lighting
- recreational field lighting
- rural roadway lighting
- agricultural property lighting
- utility distribution
CCA treatment addresses termite, decay, and rot exposure. Final application fit depends on the required structural loading, attachment details, and site conditions.
Installation and Long-Term Use
The pole installs by direct burial with 4 feet below grade and 16 feet above grade. Confirm the installation location, embedment requirement, and attachment configuration before setting the pole.
Because pole weight ranges from 300 to 400 pounds, lifting and placement need to be managed during installation. Long-term condition should include inspection of the exposed pole and connected equipment.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
For football field lighting, soccer field lighting, baseball field lighting, and recreational field lighting, the 16 foot above-grade height establishes the attachment elevation after burial. Layout patterns depend on the lighting or utility design and the required pole locations.
For rural roadway lighting, agricultural property lighting, and utility distribution, poles are placed according to the project layout and attachment requirements. Pole spacing varies with the site plan, structural loading, and required equipment placement.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is ANSI O5.1 compliant. It is pressure treated and preservative treated to the latest American Wood Preservers Association standards stated in the product information.
The warranty is one year. Direct-burial installation requires controlled handling of the 300 to 400 pound pole and verification of the planned installation conditions.
