Our 35 foot Class 5 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
These 35 ft wood poles are perfect for sports fields, baseball fields or used as utility poles. You can add 1-2 light arms per side, 2-4 in total, but no more than 2 per side. Each arm can accommodate 240 lbs per arm. The number of arms and lights depends on the class of the utility pole you select. The pole length will determine how significant the taper is as with all timber utility poles.
Options Available:
Cross Arms (2-4 per pole, 1-2 per side) and Mounting Brackets. The customer is responsible for mounting Cross Arm after the poles are delivered. Poles do not ship with cross arms attached.
These are the lights we typically mount on the cross arms. Up to 6 lights per arm, not to exceed 240 total pounds of fixtures and hardware.
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-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 is a 35-foot Class 5 wood utility pole made from Southern Yellow Pine grown and processed in the United States. The pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification and treated with CCA preservative to American Wood Preservers Association standards for rot and decay prevention.
Total pole height is 35 feet with 29.5 feet above grade and 5.5 feet buried below grade. Pole weight ranges from 740 to 875 pounds. Minimum circumference at the top is 19 inches with a minimum diameter of 6.047 inches. Six feet from the butt end, minimum circumference is 29 inches with a minimum diameter of 9.230 inches.
This pole is designed for direct burial installation without the need for a concrete foundation or separate anchor base.
Where This Product Fits Best
This 35-foot Class 5 pole is sized for applications requiring moderate mounting height with limited fixture load. Sports field lighting, baseball field perimeter lighting, and general utility pole applications are common uses for this pole class and height.
The 29.5-foot above-grade height positions fixtures at an elevation suitable for smaller athletic fields and recreational areas where full stadium-height poles are not required. Direct burial installation suits sites with soil conditions that support embedded pole placement without engineered foundations.
Class 5 designation indicates this pole is rated for lighter loading than higher-class poles. Cross arm capacity is limited to 2 to 4 arms total with no more than 2 per side and a maximum of 240 pounds per arm.
Performance and Functional Considerations
CCA treatment provides long-term protection against rot and decay for wood directly embedded in soil. Southern Yellow Pine accepts preservative treatment effectively and provides structural strength appropriate for this pole class.
The taper from butt to top is characteristic of timber utility poles. Minimum diameter increases from 6.047 inches at the top to 9.230 inches at 6 feet from the butt. This taper affects cross arm placement and fixture positioning along the pole length.
Maximum attached weight per cross arm is 240 pounds. This limit applies to the combined weight of fixtures, mounting hardware, and the cross arm itself. Up to 6 fixtures may be mounted per arm provided total weight does not exceed 240 pounds.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This pole requires direct burial installation with 5.5 feet of pole depth below grade. Site preparation must accommodate the buried portion and support the pole weight of 740 to 875 pounds during placement. Equipment capable of handling and positioning the pole vertically is required.
Cross arms are not attached at the factory. The customer is responsible for mounting cross arms after poles are delivered. This allows arm positioning to be determined on site based on fixture layout and aiming requirements.
Mounting brackets are available separately for cross arm attachment. Cross arm quantity is limited to 2 to 4 per pole with no more than 2 arms installed per side.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Facility operators use this pole where lighting needs to be elevated above field or site level but full commercial sports venue height is not required. The 29.5-foot above-grade height works for recreational baseball diamonds, practice fields, and parking or perimeter lighting where pole spacing can compensate for the lower mounting height.
Cross arms are positioned on site based on where fixtures need to aim. The 240-pound per-arm limit means fixture selection and quantity must account for combined hardware weight. Standard LED sports lighting fixtures and flood fixtures are commonly mounted on these poles.
After installation, the pole itself requires no adjustment. Long-term maintenance involves periodic inspection of the cross arms, mounting hardware, and fixtures rather than the pole structure.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. Preservative treatment meets American Wood Preservers Association standards.
This product includes a 1-year warranty.
