70 Foot Light and Utility Poles

What Are LED Lighting Supply’s Poles Made Of

LED Lighting Supply’s full line of light and utility poles is made of wood, steel, and fiberglass in various pole shaft shapes. Wood poles provide a durable solution for high-voltage electricity cables and lower-voltage power lines but are susceptible to rot and decay. They are a preferred solution over steel and aluminum light poles due to their price.

Steel poles are crafted from corrosion-resistant steel. They are commonly used for parking lot lighting projects or sports-field pole installations. Steel poles typically require additional hardware and foundation materials, depending on the pole assembly. Our steel light poles require maintenance when equipped with a galvanized powder coat finish and provide superior strength in high-wind zones. Let’s break down our steel pole offering, including our 70 foot utility pole options:

• Tapered Steel Poles
• Round Steel Poles
• Square Steel Poles

Fiberglass poles, also known as FRP utility poles, are a preferred alternative to wood, steel, and aluminum light poles, due to their ability to resist rot, rust, corrosion, and fire. We offer standard and custom colors for our fiberglass pole options. Our fiberglass poles offer a lighter alternative to steel poles, aluminum poles, and wood poles. This eases installation and manipulation efforts, especially for larger sizes like a 70 foot steel pole.

• Round Tapered Fiberglass Poles
• Round Fiberglass Poles
• Square Fiberglass Poles

What Are the Shapes and Colors of Our 70+ Foot Poles

Our 70+ foot light poles come in square and round tapered pole shaft shapes. You have the option to choose from square steel light poles and round steel light poles for smaller pole heights. We offer these poles in a dark bronze powder coat finish and custom colors. Here is a breakdown of our light pole shaft options, including our 70 foot light pole models.

What Are LED Lighting Supply’s Pole Mounting Types

We present two types of 70-foot light poles: anchor-based and direct-burial. Our commercial-grade and industrial-grade poles include crossarm and tenon pole top options suitable for outdoor lighting projects. Anchor-based light poles employ a concrete base cover secured with bolt circles and anchor bolts for enhanced stability and security. With our direct burial light pole installation, there is no need for additional foundation material, anchor bolts, or base covers to support the pole assembly. This method is primarily used for wooden poles and is ideal for a commercial light pole installation.

What Lighting Options Are Suitable For LED Lighting Supply’s 70-Foot Poles?

With multi-mounting options, our 70+ foot light poles accommodate a versatile range of lighting solutions, including high-power flood lights and stadium lights. Having supplied LED Outdoor Lights to our commercial and industrial customers for over 15 years, we can assure you that matching lights to poles is one of our core specialties. We house thousands of fixtures in our USA warehouses, ready to meet your needs, whether you require a 70 ft pole or another size.

What Are the Effective Projected Area (EPA) Considerations of LED Lighting Supply’s Poles?

Wind loads and EPA ratings vary by region. Our Lighting Experts consider the wind load requirements across the United States, and we perform an EPA calculation to establish the appropriate size, strength, and number of lights you can install on your 70+ foot pole, ensuring it perfectly suits your location. For a quick determination, you can also use LED Lighting Supply’s free pole wind load calculator for your 70 foot pole project.

Where Are You Located?

Wind loads across the United States vary from region to region. A pole installed in Memphis will have a lower wind load than one installed in Miami. Understanding the load will determine the size of the pole, its strength, and how many lights you can install on that pole. This is known as an EPA calculation, and we can provide you with that calculation before you purchase. In many cases, a high-wind-rated light pole is the best solution for your region.

What is the Lead Time for These Poles?

While each of our light poles is custom-built for your project, we strive to deliver promptly. You can expect an average lead time of between 4 to 12 weeks, depending on your project’s specifications. We also have quick-ship light pole alternatives to suit more urgent project requirements. Truck delivery will impact the anticipated delivery timeframe.

I Have an Outdoor Lighting Project. Do You Offer LED Light Fixtures That I Can Mount on These Poles?

LED Lighting Supply is first and foremost a lighting company. We have been selling LED Light Fixtures since 2008 and can provide lighting plans, a data sheet, and a spec sheet.

70 Foot Light and Utility Poles FAQs

How Should I Choose Between Wood, Steel, And Fiberglass Poles?

Choose the pole material based on project conditions, handling needs, and required durability. Wood is a lower-cost option for power lines but can be susceptible to rot and decay, steel provides strength for high-wind zones, and fiberglass resists rot, rust, corrosion, and fire while offering a lighter alternative for larger pole sizes.

What Affects How Many Lights Can Be Installed On A 70 Foot Pole?

The allowable number of lights depends on the pole EPA calculation, which considers regional wind loads, pole size, and pole strength. LED Lighting Supply can perform this calculation before purchase and offers a pole wind load calculator for preliminary project planning.

What Should I Confirm Before Selecting Fixtures For A 70 Foot Pole?

Confirm the pole mounting configuration, regional wind-load requirements, and EPA capacity before selecting fixtures. The poles support multi-mount lighting options, including high-power flood lights and stadium lights, but the pole must be sized for the planned fixture load and location.
