Our 35 foot Class 1 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 treated with preservatives to the latest American Wood Preservers Association standards to ensure rot and decay prevention. The long term durability of a wood utility pole is one of its main benefits.
Cross arms are available for our Southern Yellow Pine poles as an optional accessory. Configuration and sizing are determined based on project requirements, as well as the height and class of the selected pole. We offer both 8-foot and 10-foot cross arms, our product specialists can help confirm the appropriate size for your application.
Delivery is made with a standard flatbed truck depending on pole lengths and the customer is responsible for offloading. Offloading requires a fork lift or appropriate similar vehicle to offload - customer supplied. Customer is responsible for any costs associated with delivery rescheduling because of improper scheduling or not having the proper offloading equipment available at time of delivery. Installation should be done by a trained professional.
Pricing: Does not include price 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 35 Foot Wood Pole is a Class 1, CCA-treated Southern Yellow Pine utility pole designed for direct burial installation. It is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 standards and meets the requirements for sports field and stadium lighting support. The pole is suitable for outdoor environments where elevated mounting heights and structural reliability are required. Typical use includes supporting high mast flood lighting for baseball, softball, soccer, and football fields, as well as other large area lighting needs.
With a total length of 35 feet and a height above grade of 29.5 feet, this pole is commonly specified for new sports field lighting installations or as a replacement for aging wood or steel poles. The CCA treatment provides long-term resistance to rot and decay, making it suitable for extended outdoor exposure. Cross arm options are available to accommodate various fixture mounting requirements.
Core Performance and Output
This Class 1 wood pole supports significant fixture loads and wind-exposed applications. The minimum pole top circumference is 27 inches, with a 39-inch minimum circumference 6 feet from the butt, providing a robust structural profile. The pole is rated for direct burial with a 5.5-foot embedment depth, ensuring stability for tall lighting arrays and high wind environments.
Structural performance is determined by the Class 1 rating, which allows for higher fixture weight and EPA (Effective Projected Area) loads compared to lower class poles. The Southern Yellow Pine material offers a balance of strength and flexibility under wind load. Excessive fixture weight or mounting large arrays at the top may require engineering review to confirm wind load compliance.
Adjustability and Control Options
This pole is compatible with a range of cross arm configurations, including 8-foot and 10-foot options, to support multiple luminaires or custom mounting patterns. Cross arm selection is based on project requirements and fixture layout. The pole itself does not include integrated cable management or adjustable mounting brackets; these are specified separately as needed.
Fixture aiming and control are determined by the selected luminaires and mounting hardware. The pole provides a stable platform for flood lights, area lights, or custom sports lighting assemblies. No integrated electrical controls or smart pole features are included.
Longevity and Reliability
The CCA (Chromated Copper Arsenate) treatment meets American Wood Preservers Association standards for decay and insect resistance. This extends the service life of the pole in outdoor and damp environments. Southern Yellow Pine is selected for its structural integrity and long-term durability in utility and lighting applications.
Routine inspection of the pole base and above-grade section is recommended to monitor for mechanical damage or environmental wear. The pole is covered by a 1-year warranty. Actual service life is typically much longer when installed and maintained according to industry standards.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
This pole is manufactured from Southern Yellow Pine, debarked and treated in the United States. The pole weight ranges from 1320 to 1570 lbs, depending on final dimensions. Minimum pole top outside diameter is 8.6 inches, with a 12.4-inch diameter 6 feet from the butt, supporting high mast applications.
The direct burial design eliminates the need for anchor bolts or base plates. The pole is supplied unfinished above grade, with CCA treatment throughout. Cross arms and mounting hardware are available as optional accessories and are sized based on pole height and class.
Where This Product Fits Best
This 35 foot Class 1 wood pole is intended for outdoor sports field and large area lighting projects requiring elevated mounting heights and robust structural support. It is commonly used in:
- baseball field lighting
- football field lighting
- soccer field lighting
- sports field lighting
- driving range lighting
- recreational field lighting
- area lighting
- utility distribution
The CCA-treated Southern Yellow Pine construction is suitable for wet, humid, and outdoor environments. The pole is designed for direct burial and is compatible with a range of cross arm and fixture mounting options. Not recommended for coastal or highly corrosive environments without additional protection.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Direct burial installation requires excavation to a depth of 5.5 feet, with proper backfill and compaction for stability. The pole should be handled with appropriate lifting equipment due to its weight and length. Cross arms and fixtures are installed after the pole is set and plumbed.
Long-term use involves periodic inspection for signs of decay, mechanical damage, or ground movement. CCA treatment provides resistance to rot and insects, but above-grade sections should be monitored for impact or weathering. Replacement or reinforcement may be required if structural integrity is compromised over time.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Typical mounting height above grade is 29.5 feet, supporting flood lights or area lights for sports fields and large outdoor areas. Fixture spacing and pole layout are determined by field size, light level requirements, and aiming patterns. Poles are often spaced around the perimeter of the field or area to provide uniform coverage.
Higher mounting heights reduce glare and improve uniformity but may require fewer poles with higher output fixtures. Tradeoff: increasing fixture count can improve uniformity but adds to installation complexity and cost.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 standards and treated to American Wood Preservers Association specifications. The CCA treatment provides resistance to decay and insect damage. The pole is designed for direct burial installation and is suitable for supporting lighting and utility loads within Class 1 structural limits.
Warranty coverage is 1 year. All safety and installation procedures should follow applicable codes and best practices for utility pole installation and lighting support structures.
