This 45 foot Class 1 wood utility pole is a strong choice for outdoor power distribution, telecommunications, or lighting support where high load capacity and durability are essential. Its Southern Yellow Pine construction, CCA treatment, and compliance with ANSI O5.1 ensure structural strength and resistance to rot in wet or variable climates. The direct burial design simplifies installation without separate foundations, and the pole supports 2 to 4 cross arms at 240 pounds each, accommodating multiple circuits or equipment. This makes it well suited for substations, large parking lots, roadway corridors, and other heavy-duty infrastructure requiring above-ground heights near 40 feet.

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

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 is a 45 foot Class 1 wood utility pole made from Southern Yellow Pine. The pole is CCA treated for durability and is designed for direct burial installation. It provides 38.5 feet of height above grade with a buried depth of 6.5 feet.

The pole meets ANSI O5.1 specification and is manufactured from Southern Yellow Pine grown, debarked, and treated in the United States. Weight range is 1990 to 2330 pounds, with a minimum top circumference of 27 inches and a minimum circumference of 43 inches measured 6 feet from the butt.

Minimum pole top outside diameter is 8.6 inches, and outside diameter 6 feet from the butt is 13.7 inches. The pole is suitable for use with cross arms in 2 to 4 arm configurations, supporting up to 240 pounds per cross arm.

CCA treatment is applied to meet American Wood Preservers Association standards for rot and decay prevention. The pole carries a 1 year warranty from LED Lighting Supply.

Where This Product Fits Best

This 45 foot Class 1 wood pole is used in power distribution and telecommunications infrastructure where a tall, durable, and load-rated support is required. It is suitable for outdoor environments where direct burial installation is standard practice.

Common applications include utility line support, lighting pole installations, and mounting of cross arms for electrical or telecom lines. The pole's Class 1 rating and cross arm capacity make it appropriate for heavy-duty distribution and transmission projects.

Facilities with requirements for above-ground heights near 40 feet, such as substations, large parking lots, or roadway corridors, often specify this pole size and class. The Southern Yellow Pine construction is selected for its strength and long-term service in exterior conditions.

Performance and Functional Considerations

The 45 foot height and Class 1 rating provide a high load capacity and structural strength for demanding applications. The pole supports 2 to 4 cross arms, each with a 240 pound capacity, allowing for multiple circuit or line configurations.

CCA treatment protects the wood against rot and decay, supporting long-term use in wet or variable climates. The direct burial design eliminates the need for separate mounting hardware or foundations.

The weight range of 1990 to 2330 pounds should be considered for handling, transport, and installation planning. Minimum circumference and outside diameter values ensure compatibility with standard cross arm hardware and climbing equipment.

Installation and Long-Term Use

This pole is installed by direct burial, with 6.5 feet below grade and 38.5 feet above grade. Proper excavation and backfill are required to maintain stability and alignment during and after installation.

CCA treatment extends the service life of the pole in contact with soil and moisture. Routine inspection for mechanical damage or surface wear is recommended to maintain structural integrity over time.

Cross arms can be mounted in 2 to 4 arm configurations, depending on project requirements. The pole's dimensions and load ratings support standard utility hardware and climbing attachments.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

After installation, this 45 foot wood pole is used to support overhead power or telecom lines, lighting fixtures, or other utility equipment. The above-grade height allows for clearance over roadways, parking areas, or facility perimeters.

Operators can mount cross arms at specified heights to accommodate multiple circuits or equipment loads. The pole's load rating supports the attachment of transformers, insulators, or communication hardware as required by the application.

Routine maintenance may include visual inspection of the pole surface, hardware, and ground line area. The CCA treatment reduces the need for frequent replacement due to rot or decay, supporting long-term reliability in outdoor environments.
