Description
25FT Round Direct Burial Steel Light Pole
The TANLITE 25FT Round Direct Burial Steel Light Pole is designed for commercial and industrial area-lighting projects that require a strong, permanent direct-burial installation. The pole uses high-strength steel tubing with a round profile and a nominal 4.5-inch outside diameter. For a 25FT mounting height, the specification drawing shows a 5FT embedded section below grade.
Direct Burial Installation
The embedded section is installed directly into a concrete foundation, eliminating the need for a base plate or anchor bolts. The specification recommends a 5FT burial depth for poles in the 20–30FT range.
Heavy-Duty Corrosion Protection
The pole uses hot-dip galvanizing and a textured architectural bronze powder-coated finish. The below-grade section is protected with black asphaltum coating to provide an additional corrosion-resistant barrier against soil, moisture, acids, and alkalis.
Integrated Hand Hole and Cover
A hand hole and cover are included as standard to provide access for underground wiring and electrical connections. The hand-hole detail is positioned near the lower section of the pole for convenient installation and service access.
Suitable for Commercial Area Lighting
Designed for a wide range of outdoor lighting projects, including parking lots, retail centers, industrial parks, schools and universities, public transit hubs, airports, office buildings, medical facilities, and other commercial sites.
