Our 40 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 40 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 40-foot Class 5 wood utility pole made from Southern Yellow Pine and treated with CCA preservative. The pole provides 34 feet of usable height above grade with a 6-foot direct burial depth. Total pole weight ranges from 935 to 1,100 pounds.
The pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification and treated to American Wood Preservers Association standards for rot and decay prevention. Southern Yellow Pine is grown, debarked, and treated in the United States.
Minimum circumference at the pole top is 19 inches with a minimum diameter of 6 inches. At 6 feet from the butt, minimum circumference is 31 inches with a minimum diameter of 9.8 inches. This taper profile is characteristic of timber utility poles at this length.
Where This Product Fits Best
This 40-foot Class 5 pole is used for sports field lighting, baseball field lighting, and general utility pole applications. The 34 feet of above-grade height and cross arm capacity make it suitable for area lighting installations where fixtures need to be mounted at elevation.
The pole accepts 2 to 4 cross arms total, with a maximum of 2 cross arms per side. Each cross arm supports up to 240 pounds of attached weight, which allows for multiple fixtures per arm depending on fixture weight.
Performance and Functional Considerations
Class 5 designation under ANSI O5.1 defines the load-bearing capacity and dimensional requirements for this pole. The CCA treatment provides long-term resistance to rot and decay, which is a primary factor in wood utility pole durability.
The weight range of 935 to 1,100 pounds requires appropriate lifting and handling equipment during delivery and installation. Pole taper from butt to top is inherent to the timber construction and affects cross arm positioning and mounting hardware selection.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This pole is designed for direct burial installation at a depth of 6 feet. Cross arms and mounting brackets are available separately and must be attached by the customer after pole delivery. Poles do not ship with cross arms installed.
Each cross arm position can support up to 240 pounds total, including fixtures and mounting hardware. When planning fixture layouts, the combined weight of lights, brackets, and any associated hardware must stay within this limit per arm.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Facilities use this pole to mount area lighting at 34 feet above grade across sports fields, baseball diamonds, and similar outdoor spaces. The cross arm configuration allows fixture arrangements on one or both sides of the pole depending on coverage requirements.
With up to 6 fixtures mountable per cross arm within the 240-pound limit, operators can adjust fixture count based on individual fixture weight. The number of arms and total fixture capacity depends on the specific fixtures selected and their mounting hardware.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. Treatment conforms to American Wood Preservers Association standards for wood preservation.
This product carries a 1-year warranty.
