Our 40 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 40 foot wood pole is a Class 1 Southern Yellow Pine utility pole for direct burial installation. It provides 34 feet of installed height above grade with 6 feet below grade.
The pole is CCA treated and manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. It is commonly used for baseball field lighting, football field lighting, soccer field lighting, and utility distribution projects.
Core Performance and Output
This pole has a Class 1 ANSI rating and a total length of 40 feet. Pole weight ranges from 1,640 to 1,940 pounds.
The minimum pole top circumference is 27 inches, with a minimum top outside diameter of 8.6 inches. At 6 feet from the butt, the minimum circumference is 41 inches and the outside diameter is 13 inches.
The direct burial configuration establishes the installed height at 34 feet above grade. Structural loading, fixture weight, cross arm configuration, and site conditions need to be confirmed for the planned installation.
Adjustability and Control Options
This is a fixed-length wood pole with a 40 foot total height. Installed height is determined by the 6 foot burial depth.
Optional cross arms are available in 8 foot and 10 foot lengths. Cross arm configuration and sizing depend on project requirements, pole height, and pole class.
Longevity and Reliability
The Southern Yellow Pine pole is treated with CCA preservatives. The treatment is intended for rot and decay prevention.
Wood pole condition should be reviewed during routine site maintenance, particularly around the grade line and attached equipment. The product includes a 1 year warranty.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The pole is grown, debarked, and treated in the United States. It is manufactured from Southern Yellow Pine and built to ANSI O5.1 specification.
Its direct burial design eliminates the need for a base plate installation. The pole dimensions taper from a 13 inch outside diameter near the butt to a minimum 8.6 inch outside diameter at the top.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole fits outdoor installations that require a direct-buried wood support structure and 34 feet of height above grade. Its Class 1 construction aligns with field lighting and utility distribution layouts.
- baseball field lighting
- football field lighting
- soccer field lighting
- sports field lighting
- driving range lighting
- utility distribution
CCA treatment supports outdoor use where wood durability and decay resistance are required. Final pole loading and attachment configuration must match the project design.
Installation and Long-Term Use
The pole installs by direct burial with 6 feet below grade and 34 feet remaining above grade. Handling equipment must account for the 1,640 to 1,940 pound pole weight.
Cross arms, where required, are selected around the project configuration and the selected pole class. Site conditions and the planned attached equipment affect the final installation details.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
For baseball field lighting, football field lighting, soccer field lighting, and sports field lighting, the 34 foot above-grade height establishes the elevation available for the planned equipment. Pole placement follows the field layout and the lighting design.
For driving range lighting and utility distribution, direct burial places the structural support below grade while maintaining the full installed height above grade. Layout patterns vary with the required equipment configuration and site requirements.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. The wood treatment follows American Wood Preservers Association standards.
The pole includes a 1 year warranty. Installation requires direct burial at the specified 6 foot depth.
