Our 20-foot round wood poles are perfect for sports fields, baseball fields, and utility pole projects. You can add 1 light arms per side, 2 in total. Each arm can accommodate 240 lbs of lights per arm. Availability can change based on the quantity and length required, as different sizes can have different lead times. Our poles are built with durability in mind to ensure long-lasting performance.
Options Available:
Cross Arms (2 per pole, 1 per side) and Mounting Brackets. The customer is responsible for mounting the Cross Arm after the poles are delivered. Poles do not ship with cross arms attached.
These are the lights we typically mount on the cross arms - up to 6 lights per arm, not to exceed 240 total pounds of fixtures and hardware.
Delivery is made with a flatbed truck and the customer is responsible for offloading. Offloading requires a fork lift or appropriate similar vehicle to offload – customer supplied. Customers are responsible for any costs associated with delivery rescheduling because of improper scheduling or not having the proper offloading equipment or area to store poles available at the time of delivery. Please contact a sales representative prior to purchasing to ensure all the project details are clear.
Pricing: Does not include cost 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-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.

Professional Wood Pole Solution
Built for environments where reliable overhead support is essential, this 20-foot Class 1 treated Southern Yellow Pine pole delivers dependable performance for demanding outdoor applications. Engineered to handle substantial lighting loads up to 240 pounds per arm, this direct-burial pole provides the structural integrity needed for sports fields, utility installations, and commercial lighting projects. With its CCA treatment and robust Southern Yellow Pine construction, this pole ensures long-lasting durability in challenging weather conditions.
Suitable Environments
- Sports complexes and athletic fields requiring overhead lighting support
- Baseball and softball field installations with multi-fixture requirements
- Utility projects demanding reliable pole infrastructure
- Commercial parking areas needing elevated lighting solutions
- Municipal lighting projects where wood poles are specified
Metal Halide Replacement Benefits
- Supports modern LED fixture upgrades with enhanced load capacity compared to aging metal structures
- Provides stable platform for energy-efficient lighting systems that reduce operational costs
- Eliminates concerns about corroded metal poles that compromise fixture mounting integrity
- Offers natural resistance to electrical conductivity issues common in deteriorating metal installations
- Reduces long-term maintenance headaches through treated wood's resistance to environmental degradation
Performance & Safety
Designed to deliver exceptional structural performance, this Class 1 pole meets stringent ANSI requirements while supporting up to two cross arms with substantial lighting loads. The CCA treatment process ensures protection against insects, rot, and moisture damage that can compromise pole integrity over time.
From a safety perspective, the direct-burial installation method provides superior ground stability when properly installed to the specified 4-foot depth. The tapered design from 9.8 inches diameter at the butt measurement to 8.6 inches at the top creates optimal load distribution while maintaining adequate top-end strength for fixture mounting.
In terms of longevity, the Southern Yellow Pine species offers natural strength characteristics that, combined with professional treatment, help reduce downtime thanks to proven resistance to common environmental challenges. For most installations, this translates to years of reliable service with minimal intervention required.
Setup & Mounting
This pole arrives ready for direct-burial installation, requiring excavation to the specified 4-foot depth for proper structural support. Cross arms and mounting brackets are available separately, with customers responsible for arm attachment after delivery since poles ship without pre-mounted hardware. Additionally, the design accommodates up to six lighting fixtures per arm while maintaining the 240-pound weight limit, providing flexibility for various lighting configurations and future upgrades.
Certifications & Warranty
- ANSI Class 1 certification ensuring structural compliance
- CCA treatment meeting industry standards for wood preservation
- Southern Yellow Pine species selected for optimal strength-to-weight characteristics
- One-year manufacturer warranty covering material defects
- Professional-grade construction backed by established quality standards
- Weight specification guaranteed between 600-800 pounds for consistent installation planning
