60 Foot Stadium Light Pole | 1 Cross Arm | 115 MPH Wind Rating

Product Overview

This 60 Foot Stadium Light Pole is engineered for large-scale sports lighting and athletic field illumination. The pole is fabricated from 8 gauge S235 steel and finished with hot dip galvanization for corrosion resistance in outdoor environments. It is designed for anchor base installation and includes a single 10-foot cross arm positioned for optimal fixture mounting. Typical use cases include stadiums and athletic complexes requiring elevated mounting heights for broad, uniform light distribution.

The pole supports high-mast sports lighting layouts where fixture mounting heights of 60 feet are required to achieve proper field coverage and minimize glare. The 115 mph wind load rating and 8-anchor bolt base provide structural stability for demanding exterior applications.

Core Performance and Output

This pole is rated for 115 mph wind loads and is constructed from 8 gauge S235 steel, providing the structural capacity to support multiple large-format sports lighting fixtures. The 10-foot cross arm allows for flexible fixture placement and beam aiming. The hot dip galvanized finish protects against corrosion in exposed environments.

At 60 feet, this pole is suitable for high-output sports lighting applications where elevated mounting is required for uniformity and reduced spill light. Excessive pole height may not be appropriate for smaller fields or where lower mounting is needed for tighter beam control. The 1,973 lb pole weight and 8-anchor bolt base require a substantial concrete foundation and proper site preparation.

Adjustability and Control Options

The included 10-foot cross arm provides a mounting platform for multiple fixtures, allowing for custom aiming and spacing to achieve desired light levels and coverage. The cross arm is positioned to support typical stadium and field lighting layouts. Fixture orientation and tilt can be adjusted during installation based on project requirements.

No integrated electrical controls or wiring are included with the pole. All fixture-level controls, wiring, and aiming adjustments must be specified and installed separately according to the lighting design and control system requirements.

Longevity and Reliability

The pole is fabricated from S235 steel and finished with hot dip galvanization, providing long-term resistance to corrosion and weathering in outdoor stadium and field environments. The 8 gauge wall thickness and robust anchor base design support reliable performance under wind loading and fixture weight.

Routine inspection of anchor bolts, cross arm connections, and galvanization is recommended to maintain structural integrity over time. The 1-year warranty covers material and manufacturing defects under normal use conditions.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

This pole measures 60 feet in total height and weighs 1,973 lbs. The 8 gauge S235 steel construction and hot dip galvanized finish are designed for durability in exposed outdoor locations. The anchor base installation uses eight 43-inch long, 1.18-inch diameter anchor bolts for secure foundation attachment.

The single 10-foot cross arm is engineered for mounting multiple sports lighting fixtures and is positioned to support wide-area coverage. The pole diameter tapers from base to top, providing both strength and reduced wind profile at height.

Where This Product Fits Best

This 60 foot steel pole is intended for large outdoor sports and athletic field lighting projects where high mounting heights and robust wind load performance are required. It is commonly used in:

• stadium lighting
• athletic field lighting
• sports facility lighting
• area lighting
• commercial site lighting
• industrial yard lighting
• campus lighting
• dealership lighting

The hot dip galvanized finish and 115 mph wind rating make this pole suitable for exposed outdoor environments, including regions with moderate to high wind conditions. The anchor base design requires a reinforced concrete foundation and is not intended for direct burial installation.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Installation requires a prepared concrete foundation with eight anchor bolts set to the specified pattern and depth. The pole is lifted and set onto the anchor base, then secured with hardware. The cross arm is attached at the designated height for fixture mounting. Due to the pole?s weight and height, crane or lift equipment is required for safe handling and installation.

Long-term use involves periodic inspection of anchor bolts, cross arm hardware, and galvanization. Fixture wiring and aiming adjustments should be performed by qualified personnel. The pole is designed for permanent installation and is not intended for relocation after initial setup.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

This pole is typically deployed in stadiums and athletic fields where mounting heights of 50 to 70 feet are required for uniform sports lighting. Fixtures are spaced along the 10-foot cross arm to achieve the desired light distribution and minimize shadows. Poles are commonly arranged around the perimeter of the field or stadium, with spacing determined by field size, fixture wattage, and lighting design criteria.

Higher mounting heights reduce the number of poles needed for coverage but may require higher output fixtures and careful aiming to control glare and spill light. Fixture count and cross arm loading must be verified against the pole?s EPA and weight ratings.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This pole is manufactured from S235 steel and finished with hot dip galvanization. It is rated for 115 mph wind loads and uses eight anchor bolts for secure foundation attachment. The product includes a 1-year warranty covering material and manufacturing defects.

All installation and maintenance must comply with local codes and engineering requirements for structural safety. No additional certifications are specified for this product.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the maximum wind speed this pole is rated for?

A: The pole is rated for wind loads up to 115 mph.

Q: How many fixtures can be mounted on the cross arm?

A: The 10-foot cross arm can support multiple fixtures, but total weight and EPA must not exceed the pole?s structural limits. Refer to the pole?s engineering data for maximum allowable loading.

Q: What type of foundation is required for installation?

A: A reinforced concrete foundation with eight anchor bolts set to the specified pattern and depth is required.

Q: Is the pole suitable for coastal or highly corrosive environments?

A: The hot dip galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for most outdoor environments. For severe coastal or marine applications, additional protective measures may be needed.

Q: Can this pole be used for direct burial installation?

A: No, this pole is designed for anchor base installation only.

Q: How should fixture spacing and aiming be planned at 60 foot mounting height?

A: Fixture spacing and aiming depend on field size, fixture output, and lighting design requirements. Higher mounting heights allow for wider spacing but require careful aiming to maintain uniformity and control glare.

Application Questions and Clarification

Q: Is this pole appropriate for small sports fields or parking lots?

A: The 60 foot height is typically excessive for small fields or parking lots. It is best suited for large stadiums and athletic complexes.

Q: What is the recommended maintenance schedule for this pole?

A: Inspect anchor bolts, cross arm hardware, and galvanization annually. Address any signs of corrosion or structural wear promptly.
