Product Overview
This 30-foot round tapered fiberglass pole provides structural support for lighting fixtures in outdoor applications. The pole measures 8.5 inches at the base diameter and tapers to 5.3 inches at the tip, with an overall weight of 112 pounds. The anchor base mounting system uses 1-inch by 36-inch anchor bolts with a 4-leg configuration and 6-inch thread, positioned on an 11 to 12 inch bolt circle with 4-inch bolt projection.
The pole is finished in bronze acrylic enamel. Fiberglass construction eliminates rust and corrosion concerns that affect steel or aluminum poles in wet or coastal environments.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole is rated for 3 EPA at 100 mph wind speed, which limits the total effective projected area of mounted fixtures and hardware to 3 square feet in high-wind zones. At lower wind speeds, the EPA capacity increases: 5 EPA at 90 mph, 7 EPA at 80 mph, and 10 EPA at 70 mph. Site wind requirements determine which EPA rating applies to your application.
The 30-foot height suits parking lots, pathways, outdoor storage yards, and perimeter lighting where elevated mounting is needed to cover larger areas. Fiberglass is appropriate where corrosion resistance matters, including coastal properties, chemical plants, and facilities with salt or moisture exposure.
Performance and Functional Considerations
At 112 pounds, this pole is lighter than comparable steel poles at the same height, which affects handling during installation and rigging requirements. The round tapered profile provides consistent appearance and predictable wind loading calculations.
EPA ratings are the primary constraint when selecting fixtures. Mounting a fixture assembly that exceeds the EPA limit for the site wind speed will compromise structural integrity. Confirm the EPA values of all planned fixtures, arms, and hardware before specifying this pole.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This is an anchor base pole. The foundation must be poured and cured with the anchor bolt assembly embedded before the pole can be set. The 1-inch by 36-inch anchor bolts with 6-inch thread require a concrete foundation designed to the pole''s load and local soil conditions. Bolt circle diameter falls between 11 and 12 inches.
Fiberglass does not require repainting for corrosion protection, though the acrylic enamel finish may be touched up for appearance over time. The 15-year warranty covers the pole structure.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
This pole typically supports area lighting in commercial parking lots, industrial yards, and campus pathways where 30-foot mounting height is appropriate for coverage and glare control. The bronze finish is selected where appearance matters or where site standards require a specific color.
Installers set the anchor bolt cage during concrete work, then lower the pole over the bolts and secure it after the foundation has cured. Fixture wiring is pulled through the pole interior and connected at the handhole or base.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole carries a 15-year warranty. The EPA ratings define the maximum fixture load at specified wind speeds. Installations must comply with local building codes and foundation requirements.
