Our CCA Treated 40 Foot Wood Pole Class 2 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.
Our 40 ft round wood poles are perfect for sports fields, baseball fields, and a utility pole project. You can add up to 4 light arms per pole. Each arm can accommodate 240 lbs per arm. Number of arms and lights depends on the class of pole you select. The class will determine the diameter at the base. Availability can change based on the quantity and length required as different sizes can have different lead times. Our poles are built with durability in mind to ensure long-lasting performance.
Options Available:
Cross Arms (4 per pole, 2 per side) and Mounting Brackets. Customer is responsible for mounting Cross Arm after 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 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.
Pricing: Does not include cost 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.
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 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 40-foot Class 2 wood utility pole manufactured from Ponderosa Pine and pressure treated with CCA preservative. The pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification and treated to American Wood Preservers Association standards for protection against termites, decay, and rot.
Total pole height is 40 feet, with 34 feet above grade and 6 feet of buried depth. Pole weight ranges from 900 to 1080 pounds. Minimum circumference at the pole top is 25 inches, and minimum circumference 6 feet from the butt is 42.5 inches. Minimum diameter at the pole top is 7.957 inches, with minimum diameter 6 feet from the butt at 13.528 inches.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole is used for sports field lighting, baseball field lighting, and utility pole applications. The Class 2 rating and dimensional specifications make it suitable for installations requiring multiple cross arms and substantial fixture loads.
Direct burial installation is the intended mounting method. Site conditions must accommodate the 6-foot burial depth and the pole weight during placement.
Performance and Functional Considerations
The pole accepts a maximum of 2 to 4 cross arms total, with 1 to 2 cross arms permitted per side. Each cross arm supports up to 240 pounds of attached weight, which includes fixtures, brackets, and mounting hardware combined.
CCA treatment provides chemical protection against biological degradation. The preservative is pressure-applied and conforms to AWPA standards for treated wood poles.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This pole is installed by direct burial with 6 feet below grade. The installation requires equipment capable of handling 900 to 1080 pounds of pole weight and positioning the pole into the excavated hole.
Cross arms are not attached at the time of delivery. Cross arm mounting is performed on-site after pole installation is complete. Mounting brackets are available as separate options.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Once installed, this pole serves as the structural support for area lighting systems. Facilities use the cross arm positions to mount multiple fixtures across the coverage area, with arm placement determined during initial installation planning.
The 34-foot above-grade height establishes the mounting elevation for attached fixtures. When planning fixture layouts, the 240-pound per-arm limit applies to the total combined weight of all fixtures, brackets, and hardware mounted to each individual cross arm.
Maintenance access to fixtures mounted on this pole requires lift equipment capable of reaching the installed fixture height. The treated wood construction is intended to remain in service without retreatment under normal environmental exposure.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. Preservative treatment conforms to American Wood Preservers Association standards.
The pole is covered by a 1-year warranty.
