Our 45 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

These 45 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 45-foot Class 1 wood pole is manufactured from Southern Yellow Pine and treated with CCA preservative. The pole meets ANSI O5.1 specifications and American Wood Preservers Association treatment standards for rot and decay prevention.

Total pole height is 45 feet, with 38.5 feet above grade and 6.5 feet of buried depth. The pole installs via direct burial without the need for a concrete foundation or separate base structure. Pole weight ranges from 1,990 to 2,330 pounds.

Cross arms are available as separate components and must be mounted after delivery. Poles ship without cross arms attached.

Where This Product Fits Best

This pole is commonly used at sports fields, baseball fields, and as a utility pole for area lighting or distribution. The 38.5-foot above-grade height provides clearance and throw distance appropriate for athletic field illumination and general site lighting applications.

Class 1 designation provides structural capacity for configurations requiring multiple cross arms and heavier fixture loads. The CCA treatment supports long-term outdoor exposure where the pole is subject to moisture, ground contact, and environmental weathering.

Performance and Functional Considerations

The pole supports 2 to 4 cross arms total, with a maximum of 2 cross arms per side. Each cross arm accommodates up to 240 pounds of attached weight, including fixtures and mounting hardware. This defines the upper limit for luminaire count and arm-mounted equipment per pole.

Minimum circumference at the pole top is 27 inches, with a minimum diameter of 8.594 inches. Six feet from the butt, the minimum circumference is 43 inches, with a minimum diameter of 13.687 inches. This taper is characteristic of timber utility poles and affects both structural performance and cross arm positioning.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Installation requires direct burial to a depth of 6.5 feet. Pole weight of 1,990 to 2,330 pounds requires equipment capable of lifting and setting the pole during installation.

Cross arms are mounted after delivery by the installer. The pole does not ship with arms attached. Hardware, fixture mounting, and electrical routing are completed on-site as part of the installation scope.

CCA treatment provides protection against rot and decay over the service life of the pole. Long-term durability under continuous outdoor exposure is a primary characteristic of treated wood utility poles.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Installers typically configure the pole with 1 or 2 cross arms per side depending on the number of luminaires required and the total fixture weight. Each arm supports up to 240 pounds, which determines how many fixtures can be mounted per arm without exceeding the rated load.

Once installed, field operators rely on the pole to support area lighting for athletic fields or parking areas. The 38.5-foot above-grade height positions luminaires at an elevation suited for wide coverage on playing surfaces. Maintenance access and relamping require lift equipment appropriate for the mounted height.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
