25 Foot Round Tapered Steel Light Pole | 6.5 Inch Base Diameter | Anchor Base | High Wind Zone Rated

Product Overview

This is a 25-foot round tapered steel light pole with a 6.5-inch base diameter tapering to 3 inches at the tip. The pole is constructed from 11-gauge steel and weighs 163 pounds. It uses an anchor base installation method with a bolt circle ranging from 9 to 11 inches and a bolt projection of 3.15 inches.

The finish is hot dip galvanized and powder coated in bronze. This dual-layer finish process applies corrosion protection at the steel level before the final color coat. The pole carries a 1-year warranty.

Where This Product Fits Best

This pole is engineered for high wind zone applications. EPA ratings are provided across a range from 70 mph through 150 mph, allowing fixture and arm combinations to be matched against site-specific wind load requirements. At 90 mph, the pole supports an EPA of 8.7. At 120 mph, that drops to 5.1. At 150 mph, the allowable EPA is 1.4.

The 25-foot height and tapered round profile suit parking areas, perimeter lighting, pathways, and general site lighting where a mid-height steel pole is appropriate. The bronze finish is commonly specified for commercial properties, municipal projects, and sites with architectural color requirements.

Performance and Functional Considerations

EPA values determine how much fixture and mounting arm surface area the pole can support at a given wind speed. The higher the wind speed rating required, the lower the allowable EPA. Before specifying fixtures, calculate the combined EPA of the luminaire and any mounting arms, then confirm it falls within the pole''s rated capacity for your design wind speed.

The tapered round shaft provides a traditional pole profile while reducing weight compared to straight shafts of equivalent base diameter. At 163 pounds, this pole is manageable for standard installation crews with appropriate lifting equipment.

Installation and Long-Term Use

This pole uses an anchor base mount. The bolt circle range of 9 to 11 inches accommodates standard anchor bolt templates within that spread. Bolt projection is 3.15 inches, which determines how much thread extends above the concrete foundation for base plate attachment.

The hot dip galvanized layer protects the steel from corrosion before the powder coat is applied. This finish combination is appropriate for outdoor exposure. The bronze powder coat provides the final appearance and additional surface protection.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Installers typically mount single or multiple fixtures at the top of this pole using compatible tenon-mount arms or direct-mount brackets. The 3-inch tip diameter determines which mounting accessories will fit without adapters. Confirm tenon size compatibility before selecting arms or fixtures.

Once installed, the pole requires no routine adjustment. Long-term maintenance is limited to inspecting the base plate connection, anchor bolts, and finish condition. Any fixture or arm changes over the life of the pole should be checked against the EPA limits for the site''s rated wind speed.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This pole carries a 1-year warranty. The hot dip galvanized and powder coated finish is applied to protect against corrosion in outdoor installations.

EPA ratings provided for wind speeds from 70 mph to 150 mph allow engineers and specifiers to confirm structural suitability for the project''s wind zone classification.
