What Are 60+ Foot Poles Made Of?

Our 60+ foot light poles utilize pressure-treated southern yellow pine construction, engineered for decades of reliable outdoor performance. After 17 years of supplying commercial lighting projects, we've found wood poles offer the best combination of strength, longevity, and cost-effectiveness for extreme height applications. When your project demands alternatives, we stock both steel and fiberglass options for shorter installations.

• Steel light poles deliver exceptional durability in high-wind environments while requiring virtually no maintenance over their lifespan. Foundation design and anchor bolt systems support secure installation, making steel our most economical alternative to traditional wood construction.
• Fiberglass light poles resist rot, rust, corrosion, and fire damage better than any other material. Most customers choose fiberglass when environmental conditions or local codes require maximum weather resistance.

Wood poles are manufactured in Class 1 through Class 4 ratings to exceed American National Standards Institute (ANSI) specifications. Every wood pole includes our 1-year guarantee covering materials and workmanship.

What are the Mounting Types of These Poles?

We offer anchor-based and direct burial mounting systems for 60 to 65-foot installations. Anchor-based mounting uses concrete foundations with anchor bolts to maximize stability and wind resistance—particularly important at these extreme heights. Direct burial installation works exclusively with wooden poles, eliminating foundation materials while creating a cleaner visual profile. We typically recommend anchor-based systems for locations with wind speeds above 90 mph or when mounting multiple fixtures per pole.

What are the EPA Considerations of LED Lighting Supply's?

Wind load calculations determine the maximum number and size of fixtures your 60+ foot pole can safely support. We perform detailed EPA analysis considering your specific location's wind speed requirements and soil conditions before finalizing pole specifications. This engineering approach prevents structural failures while maximizing your lighting capacity.

Does Where are You Located Matter?

Regional wind loads dramatically impact pole requirements across the United States. A Memphis installation faces significantly lower wind stress than the same pole installed in Miami's hurricane zone. Location-specific calculations determine pole diameter, wall thickness, and maximum fixture EPA ratings. This EPA calculation prevents over-engineering while ensuring code compliance—we provide these calculations free before purchase. Custom pole engineering often delivers the most cost-effective solution for challenging locations. Shipping distance also affects delivery costs for these oversized components. Use our free pole wind load calculator for immediate EPA estimates.
