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

These 70 ft wood poles are perfect for sports fields, baseball fields or used as utility poles. You can add 1-3 light arms per side, 2-6 in total, but no more than 3 per side. Each arm can accommodate 240 lbs per arm. The number of arms and lights depends on the class of the utility pole you select. The pole length will determine how significant the taper is as with all timber utility poles.

Options Available:

Cross Arms (2-6 per pole, 1-3 per side) and Mounting Brackets. The customer is responsible for mounting 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 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-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.

Heavy-Duty Pole Solution for Major Lighting Installations

For facilities that require substantial lighting support at impressive heights, this 70-foot Class 2 Southern Yellow Pine pole delivers the structural integrity needed for demanding applications. Built for environments where reliable pole performance is critical, this CCA-treated timber solution provides 61 feet of working height above grade with the deep foundation stability that comes from 9 feet of buried depth. Engineered to handle demanding conditions while maintaining the natural durability advantages of properly treated wood, this pole supports significant lighting loads across sports complexes, utility installations, and large-scale commercial properties.

Replacing Older Lighting Systems

When upgrading from metal halide systems or aging pole infrastructure, this Southern Yellow Pine solution offers distinct advantages over traditional alternatives. By comparison, wood poles provide natural resilience against environmental stresses while delivering the load-bearing capacity essential for multi-fixture installations. In real-world use, the combination of proper CCA treatment and Class 2 engineering specifications ensures dependable operation where older poles might compromise safety or performance.

  • Supports up to 6 lighting fixtures total with 240-pound capacity per cross arm
  • Accommodates 2-6 cross arms depending on installation requirements
  • Provides superior height advantage with 61 feet above-grade positioning
  • Offers natural weather resistance through proper preservative treatment

Mounting, Setup & Controls

This model is designed for applications where direct burial installation provides the most reliable foundation approach. With its specialized construction requiring 9 feet of below-grade positioning, the pole achieves optimal stability for the substantial loads typical in major lighting projects. Cross arms and mounting brackets are available as separate components, allowing installation teams to customize the final configuration based on specific lighting requirements. From a safety perspective, the pole's engineered taper from 48-inch circumference at the base area to 25-inch circumference at the top ensures proper load distribution across the full 70-foot length.

Certifications

  • ANSI O5.1 specification compliance for utility pole standards
  • American Wood Preservers Association treatment standards
  • CCA preservative treatment for rot and decay prevention
  • Class 2 ANSI rating for structural load requirements

Where This Fixture Excels

  • Sports field lighting installations requiring maximum height coverage
  • Baseball field illumination with multi-fixture configurations
  • Utility pole applications demanding substantial load capacity
  • Large commercial properties needing reliable perimeter lighting support
  • Athletic facilities where lighting quality and coverage are critical

Performance Overview

One of the reasons this fixture stands out is its ability to combine the natural durability of Southern Yellow Pine with the engineering precision required for Class 2 applications. Designed to deliver long-term structural reliability while supporting significant lighting loads, this pole weighs between 3500-4200 pounds to provide the mass necessary for stability in demanding installations. Additionally, the CCA treatment process ensures protection against the environmental factors that typically compromise wood pole performance, while the ANSI O5.1 manufacturing standards guarantee consistent quality across every installation.
