Our CCA Treated 30 Foot Wood Pole Class 4 Treated Ponderosa 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.

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.
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 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
The 30 Foot Wood Pole, Class 4, is crafted from Ponderosa Pine and treated with CCA to ensure durability and resistance to decay. Designed for direct burial installation, this pole is suitable for various outdoor lighting applications, particularly in sports fields and stadiums. With a height of 30 feet and a weight range of 430-505 lbs, it meets ANSI O5.1 specifications, making it a reliable choice for supporting lighting fixtures in demanding environments.
This pole is ideal for installations where a robust and natural-looking support structure is required. Its treatment to AWPA standards ensures long-term performance against environmental factors, making it suitable for both urban and rural settings.
Core Performance and Output
The structural capacity of this wood pole is defined by its Class 4 rating, which indicates its ability to support lighting fixtures in various outdoor environments. The pole's 30-foot height, with 25 feet above grade, provides ample elevation for effective light distribution across large areas. The CCA treatment enhances its resistance to termites and decay, ensuring longevity.
With a minimum pole top circumference of 21 inches and a circumference of 32.5 inches six feet from the butt, this pole offers substantial support for lighting fixtures. The direct burial installation method simplifies the setup process, although care must be taken to ensure proper depth and stability in varying soil conditions.
Adjustability and Control Options
This wood pole does not include integrated adjustability or control options. Its primary function is to provide a stable and durable support structure for lighting fixtures. Any adjustability or control features would need to be incorporated into the lighting fixtures themselves or through external systems.
For installations requiring specific lighting angles or control, consider pairing this pole with compatible fixtures that offer adjustable mounting brackets or integrated control systems.
Longevity and Reliability
The CCA treatment applied to this Ponderosa Pine pole ensures resistance to environmental degradation, including rot and termite damage. This treatment, combined with adherence to AWPA standards, provides a reliable solution for long-term outdoor use.
With a one-year warranty, this pole offers peace of mind regarding its structural integrity and performance. Regular inspections and maintenance can further extend its lifespan, particularly in harsh environmental conditions.
