Our 60 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
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 60 foot wood utility pole is a Class 3 Southern Yellow Pine pole for direct burial installation. It provides 52 feet of height above grade with an 8 foot embedded section below grade.
The pole is CCA treated and manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specifications. It is used for elevated lighting and utility distribution installations where a wood pole structure is appropriate.
Core Performance and Output
This pole provides structural height rather than light output. Its 60 foot overall length establishes a 52 foot above-grade mounting elevation after direct burial installation.
The Class 3 construction, Southern Yellow Pine material, and CCA treatment support long-term outdoor pole use. Final fixture loading, cross arm configuration, and structural requirements must be evaluated for the individual installation.
Adjustability and Control Options
Optional 8 foot and 10 foot cross arms are available for this pole. Cross arm size and configuration depend on project requirements and the selected pole height and class.
The pole itself does not establish fixture aiming, lighting controls, or electrical operating characteristics. Those components are determined by the lighting or utility equipment mounted to the structure.
Longevity and Reliability
The Southern Yellow Pine construction is CCA treated to help prevent rot and decay. Treatment is completed to current American Wood Preservers Association standards.
Wood poles require inspection of the buried section, pole surface, mounted equipment, and hardware during long-term service. This pole includes a 1 year warranty.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
This pole has a minimum top circumference of 23 inches and a minimum circumference of 42 inches at 6 feet from the butt. Minimum top outside diameter is 7.3 inches, with a 13.4 inch outside diameter at 6 feet from the butt.
Pole weight ranges from 2,370 to 2,800 pounds. Installation requires handling equipment appropriate for the pole weight and direct burial placement.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole fits elevated outdoor installations that use wood utility pole construction and require a 52 foot above-grade structure. It is applicable to field lighting and utility distribution work within the listed application categories.
- football field lighting
- baseball field lighting
- soccer field lighting
- softball field lighting
- driving range lighting
- recreational field lighting
- utility distribution
CCA treatment supports outdoor exposure where rot and decay prevention is required. Direct burial installation requires an 8 foot below-grade pole section.
Installation and Long-Term Use
The pole is installed by direct burial with 8 feet below grade and 52 feet remaining above grade. Site access, excavation conditions, lifting requirements, and installed equipment loading affect the installation process.
Cross arms, fixtures, utility equipment, and related hardware must be coordinated with the final pole configuration. Field inspection should include the pole, buried-area condition, mounted equipment, and attachment hardware.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
The 52 foot above-grade height supports elevated layouts for baseball field lighting, football field lighting, soccer field lighting, softball field lighting, driving range lighting, and recreational field lighting. Utility distribution installations use the pole as a wood support structure with project-specific equipment configuration.
Field layouts commonly place poles around the area being served so mounted equipment can be aimed across the site. Cross arm selection and equipment placement vary with the required layout and loading conditions.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specifications. The preservative treatment meets current American Wood Preservers Association standards.
The pole includes a 1 year warranty. Direct burial work, lifting, excavation, and mounted equipment installation must be completed using appropriate site safety procedures.
