This 55 foot Class 1 Southern Yellow Pine utility pole is a strong choice for outdoor electrical distribution, roadway and area lighting, or telecommunications infrastructure where a tall, high-strength wood pole is needed. Its ANSI O5.1 Class 1 rating ensures reliable structural performance for heavy cross-arm loads or multiple circuits, while CCA treatment protects against rot and decay in direct burial and outdoor environments. Direct burial installation streamlines setup without separate foundations, and the pole's dimensions support standard hardware and field modifications. This makes it well-suited for commercial and industrial sites requiring durable, long-lasting pole-mounted lighting or utility support.

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.

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.
