Our CCA Treated 45 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.
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 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 45 foot wood pole, Class 2, made from treated Ponderosa Pine. The pole is engineered for direct burial installation and provides 38.5 feet of height above grade after installation. It is pressure treated with CCA for durability against termites, decay, and rot.
The pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification and meets Class 2 requirements. Minimum pole top circumference is 25 inches, with a minimum circumference of 44.5 inches measured 6 feet from the butt. The pole top outside diameter is at least 8 inches, and the outside diameter 6 feet from the butt is 14.2 inches.
Pole weight ranges from 1000 to 1270 pounds. The product is grown, debarked, and treated in the United States and is designed for use in commercial and industrial lighting applications.
Direct burial installation is required, with 6.5 feet of the pole set below grade for stability.
Where This Product Fits Best
This 45 foot Class 2 wood pole is suitable for outdoor lighting installations where a tall, robust mounting structure is needed. Typical applications include large parking lots, roadway lighting, sports fields, and perimeter lighting for industrial or commercial properties.
The treated Ponderosa Pine construction is appropriate for environments where resistance to decay, rot, and termite damage is required. The pole is intended for use where direct burial is the preferred installation method.
Facilities requiring ANSI Class 2 certified poles for compliance or structural requirements will find this pole meets those needs. The above-grade height supports mounting of LED fixtures at elevations needed for wide-area coverage.
Performance and Functional Considerations
The 45 foot total length, with 38.5 feet above grade, allows for high mounting of lighting fixtures to achieve broad distribution and minimize glare at ground level. The direct burial design provides stability without the need for anchor bolts or base plates.
Pressure treatment with CCA extends service life by protecting the wood from insect and fungal attack. The pole's weight and dimensions support mounting of standard commercial and industrial LED lighting fixtures, as well as other compatible equipment.
Minimum top and butt diameters ensure compatibility with a range of bracket and arm mounting hardware. The pole is engineered to ANSI O5.1 Class 2 standards for structural integrity.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Installation requires excavation for direct burial, with 6.5 feet of the pole set below grade. Proper backfill and compaction are necessary to maintain stability and prevent shifting over time.
The treated Ponderosa Pine construction is designed for long-term outdoor use. Routine inspection for physical damage and hardware condition is recommended as part of ongoing maintenance.
The pole's dimensions and weight require appropriate lifting and handling equipment during installation. Once installed, the pole provides a stable mounting point for lighting and related equipment.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
After installation, this 45 foot wood pole is used as a mounting structure for LED area lights, flood lights, or roadway fixtures. The above-grade height supports wide-area illumination and helps reduce shadowing in large outdoor spaces.
Facility teams typically use the pole to mount lighting at heights that minimize interference with ground operations and maximize coverage. The treated wood construction allows the pole to remain in service with minimal attention beyond periodic inspection.
Direct burial installation means there are no exposed base plates or anchor bolts at grade, reducing trip hazards and simplifying grounds maintenance around the pole.
