Our 65 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 65 foot wood light and utility pole is a Class 1 Southern Yellow Pine pole for direct burial installation. It provides 56.5 feet above grade with an 8.5 foot buried depth.
The pole is CCA treated and manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specifications. It is used where a tall wood pole is required for sports field lighting, utility distribution, and rural roadway lighting.
Core Performance and Output
The Class 1 construction supports demanding structural pole applications. Pole weight ranges from 3,590 to 4,230 pounds, depending on the individual pole.
The minimum pole top outside diameter is 8.6 inches, and the outside diameter measured 6 feet from the butt is 15.8 inches. The pole has a minimum top circumference of 27 inches and a minimum circumference of 49.5 inches at 6 feet from the butt.
The 65 foot overall length and 56.5 foot above-grade height affect structural layout, fixture loading, and utility attachment planning. Final loading requirements must match the pole class and project design.
Adjustability and Control Options
This is a fixed-height direct burial pole with no integral adjustment or control components. Pole height is established by the 8.5 foot burial depth.
Optional 8 foot and 10 foot cross arms are available. Cross arm configuration and size depend on project requirements, pole height, and pole class.
Longevity and Reliability
The Southern Yellow Pine construction is CCA treated for rot and decay prevention. Treatment is applied to American Wood Preservers Association standards.
Wood poles require inspection during installation and throughout service life. Direct burial conditions, ground conditions, and installed loading affect long-term pole condition.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The pole is grown, debarked, and treated in the United States. Southern Yellow Pine provides the wood construction used for this Class 1 pole.
Overall pole length is 65 feet. The pole extends 56.5 feet above grade after direct burial installation and is set 8.5 feet below grade.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole fits tall outdoor lighting and utility support installations that require a Class 1 wood pole and direct burial construction.
- baseball field lighting
- football field lighting
- sports field lighting
- driving range lighting
- recreational field lighting
- rural roadway lighting
- utility distribution
The CCA-treated wood construction is intended for direct burial use. Pole class, attachment configuration, and site loading requirements need to be established before installation.
Installation and Long-Term Use
Installation uses direct burial with 8.5 feet of pole below grade. The installed pole height above grade is 56.5 feet.
The 3,590 to 4,230 pound pole weight requires appropriate handling equipment and site access during placement. Cross arms, if used, should be selected around the required project configuration.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
For baseball field lighting, football field lighting, and other sports field lighting, the pole provides a 56.5 foot mounting elevation above grade after installation. Layouts are planned around field geometry, light distribution, and pole locations.
Driving range lighting and recreational field lighting layouts use pole placement to support the required lighting pattern across the site. Higher pole locations can reduce the number of pole positions, but fixture loading and layout requirements still control the final design.
For rural roadway lighting and utility distribution, direct burial placement and attachment configuration are established as part of the site layout. Cross arm size depends on the selected configuration and project requirements.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specifications. Preservative treatment meets American Wood Preservers Association standards.
The pole includes a 1 year warranty. Installation must account for the pole weight, burial depth, and required project loading.
