Our 55 foot Class 3 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 55 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 55-foot Class 3 wood pole is manufactured from Southern Yellow Pine, grown and processed in the United States to ANSI O5.1 specification. The pole is CCA (Chromated Copper Arsenate) treated to American Wood Preservers Association standards for rot and decay resistance. Total pole weight ranges from 2,070 to 2,440 pounds.
The pole is designed for direct burial installation with 7.5 feet set below grade, leaving 47.5 feet of usable height above ground. Minimum top circumference measures 23 inches (7.321-inch diameter), tapering to a minimum circumference of 40.5 inches (12.892-inch diameter) at 6 feet from the butt.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole is sized for sports field lighting, baseball field installations, and utility applications where elevated mounting height is required. The 47.5-foot above-grade height accommodates lighting layouts that require fixtures positioned well above playing surfaces or coverage areas.
Class 3 designation defines the load capacity. The pole accepts cross arms for fixture mounting, with a maximum of two arms per side (four total). Each arm is rated for up to 240 pounds of combined fixture and hardware weight.
Performance and Functional Considerations
Southern Yellow Pine accepts preservative treatment effectively, and the CCA process provides long-term resistance to rot and decay in direct-burial applications. The taper from butt to top is characteristic of timber utility poles and becomes more pronounced on longer poles.
The weight range of 2,070 to 2,440 pounds requires equipment capable of handling and setting poles of this size. Rigging, transport, and installation logistics should account for this weight class.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This pole is direct burial only. The specified 7.5-foot embedment depth is required to achieve the 47.5-foot above-grade height. Soil conditions and local engineering requirements may affect burial method or foundation preparation.
Cross arms and mounting brackets are available as separate options. Poles ship without cross arms attached. The customer is responsible for mounting cross arms after delivery. Each arm accepts up to six fixtures, provided total weight per arm does not exceed 240 pounds including hardware.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
Facility operators typically configure these poles with cross arms to support area lighting for sports fields or large outdoor spaces. The two-per-side arm limit and 240-pound-per-arm rating determine how many fixtures can be mounted and how they are distributed around the pole.
Once installed, the pole serves as a permanent structural element. Fixture changes, maintenance access, and future reconfigurations require lift equipment capable of reaching the installed arm heights. Arm placement and fixture count are planned before installation since modifying the configuration after the pole is set involves significant effort.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. CCA treatment is applied to American Wood Preservers Association standards.
LED Lighting Supply provides a 1-year warranty on this product.
