70 Foot Wood Pole | Class 2 | Treated | Southern Yellow Pine
This 70 foot Class 2 Southern Yellow Pine wood pole is a strong choice for projects needing tall, durable support for lighting or utility equipment, especially in large outdoor areas like sports fields, roadways, or utility distribution sites. Its CCA treatment resists rot and decay for long-term reliability in soil and moisture, while direct burial installation is practical where poured foundations are not feasible. The pole's ANSI O5.1 compliance and substantial cross-arm capacity support demanding loads and multiple fixtures.

Our 70 foot Class 2 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 is a 70 foot Class 2 wood pole constructed from Southern Yellow Pine. The pole is CCA treated for rot and decay resistance. It is designed for direct burial installation with a total height of 70 feet and 61 feet above grade after installation.
The pole meets ANSI O5.1 specification and is manufactured from debarked, treated Southern Yellow Pine. Minimum pole top circumference is 25 inches, and minimum circumference 6 feet from the butt is 48 inches. The pole weight ranges from 3500 to 4200 pounds.
Cross arms are available as an accessory and can be configured based on project requirements. Both 8-foot and 10-foot cross arms are supported for this pole class and height.
Where This Product Fits Best
This 70 foot Class 2 wood pole is suited for utility-grade lighting, electrical distribution, and infrastructure projects requiring tall, durable support structures. It is commonly used in large outdoor areas where extended mounting height is needed.
Direct burial installation makes this pole appropriate for locations where poured foundations or anchor bases are not practical. The CCA treatment allows use in environments where wood is exposed to soil and moisture.
Applications include roadway lighting, sports field lighting, utility distribution, and large area illumination where pole height and strength are critical.
Performance and Functional Considerations
The pole supports a cross-arm capacity of 240 pounds, allowing for multiple fixtures or equipment to be mounted as required. The Class 2 rating defines the structural strength and load capacity for demanding installations.
Minimum top diameter is 7.957 inches, and minimum diameter 6 feet from the butt is 15.279 inches. These dimensions support stability and load distribution for tall pole applications.
CCA treatment provides long-term resistance to rot and decay, supporting extended service life in outdoor and buried conditions.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This pole is installed using direct burial, with 9 feet of the pole set below grade and 61 feet above grade. Proper burial depth is required for stability and compliance with structural standards.
The weight of the pole, ranging from 3500 to 4200 pounds, requires appropriate equipment for handling and setting. Southern Yellow Pine construction provides a balance of strength and workability during installation.
Long-term durability is supported by CCA treatment and adherence to American Wood Preservers Association standards. Routine inspection for physical damage and ground line condition is recommended for ongoing reliability.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
After installation, this 70 foot wood pole provides a stable mounting point for lighting fixtures, electrical lines, or other utility equipment. The height allows for wide-area coverage and clearance for overhead lines or luminaires.
Cross arms can be added as needed to support multiple fixtures or conductors. The pole's structural class and dimensions allow it to handle significant wind and equipment loads in exposed environments.
Operators typically rely on the treated wood construction for long service intervals with minimal maintenance, aside from periodic inspection and hardware tightening.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification and is CCA treated to American Wood Preservers Association standards.
