Product Overview
This 25 Foot Wood Pole, Class 4, is manufactured from Ponderosa Pine and pressure treated with CCA preservative. It is designed for direct burial installation in outdoor environments where wood poles are required for lighting, utility distribution, or field infrastructure. The pole meets ANSI O5.1 standards and is suitable for supporting area and sports field lighting, as well as utility lines in municipal and rural settings.
With a total length of 25 feet and a height above grade of 20.5 feet after burial, this pole is commonly used for mounting luminaires or utility hardware at moderate heights. Typical installations include sports fields, parking lots, and agricultural properties where wood poles are preferred for their non-conductive properties and ease of field modification.
Core Performance and Output
This Class 4 wood pole supports moderate wind and load requirements, with a minimum top circumference of 21 inches and a 6-foot-from-butt circumference of 30 inches. The pole is rated for direct burial, providing structural stability for lighting fixtures, crossarms, or utility hardware. Weight ranges from 400 to 500 lbs, supporting typical area and field lighting loads within the Class 4 rating.
Environmental performance is defined by the CCA treatment, which protects against decay, termites, and rot. The pole?s structural capacity is suitable for mounting single or double lighting fixtures, small distribution transformers, or utility lines. Excessive fixture weight or high EPA (Effective Projected Area) loads may require higher class or larger diameter poles.
Adjustability and Control Options
The pole allows for field drilling and mounting of hardware at required heights. Brackets, crossarms, and luminaires can be attached using standard through-bolts or lag screws. The wood construction enables on-site adjustment for mounting hole locations and accessory installation.
No integrated control or wiring features are included; all conduit, wiring, and controls must be field-installed. The pole supports a range of fixture types and mounting configurations, but does not provide built-in cable management or access panels.
Longevity and Reliability
Pressure treatment with CCA extends the service life of the pole by protecting against rot, decay, and insect damage. The Ponderosa Pine material is selected for structural consistency and durability in outdoor environments. Expected service life is dependent on soil conditions, installation quality, and exposure to moisture.
Routine inspection for surface checking, decay at ground line, and mechanical damage is recommended. The 1-year warranty covers material and manufacturing defects but does not extend to damage from improper installation or site conditions.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 standards, ensuring minimum top and butt diameters for structural integrity. Each pole is debarked, shaped, and pressure treated to meet American Wood Preservers Association requirements. The CCA treatment is applied to the full length of the pole, including the below-grade section.
Physical dimensions include a minimum top outside diameter of 6.7 inches and a 6-foot-from-butt diameter of 9.5 inches. The pole is supplied in natural wood finish, with no pre-drilled holes or hardware included. Weight varies by moisture content and wood density.
Where This Product Fits Best
This 25 Foot Class 4 wood pole is suited for outdoor environments where moderate mounting heights and non-conductive support structures are required. It is commonly used in sports field lighting, rural area lighting, and utility distribution where wood poles are preferred for their field adaptability and cost-effectiveness.

- utility distribution
The CCA treatment and direct burial design allow for installation in a range of soil types and climates. The pole is not recommended for coastal or marine environments where higher corrosion resistance is required.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Installation is direct burial, with 4.5 feet of the pole set below grade for stability. Standard practice includes tamping backfill and ensuring proper drainage at the base. The pole can be field drilled for mounting hardware and is compatible with a range of bracket and crossarm systems.
Long-term use requires periodic inspection for ground line decay and mechanical damage. Replacement cycles are influenced by soil moisture, freeze-thaw cycles, and exposure to agricultural chemicals. The pole is not pre-drilled, allowing for flexibility in fixture placement and hardware attachment.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Typical mounting heights for luminaires or utility hardware are 20 to 21 feet above grade, depending on burial depth. Poles are spaced according to lighting layout requirements, fixture wattage, and field size. For sports field lighting, poles are often installed at corners and along sidelines to provide uniform coverage.
Fixture count and spacing are determined by light level targets and field geometry. Higher mounting heights can reduce fixture count but may require larger or higher-class poles for wind load support. Field modification is common for bracket and arm installation.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 standards and treated to American Wood Preservers Association specifications. CCA treatment provides resistance to decay and insect damage. The pole is supplied with a 1-year warranty covering material and manufacturing defects.
Proper handling and installation procedures should be followed to avoid damage to the pole and ensure long-term performance. Personal protective equipment is recommended during handling and installation due to preservative treatment.
