The Octagonal Advantage: Superior Strength & Modern Aesthetics for Versatile Applications

Experience the perfect blend of structural integrity and contemporary design with our premium Octagonal Poles. Engineered for superior performance and longevity, these poles offer a distinctive, robust, and aesthetically pleasing solution for a wide range of outdoor infrastructure projects. From urban lighting to sophisticated surveillance systems, our octagonal poles provide the stability and visual appeal your project demands.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Exceptional Strength & Durability: The unique eight-sided cross-section provides superior torsional rigidity and resistance to bending and wind loads compared to round or square poles. Manufactured from high-grade materials, ensuring long-term resilience against environmental stressors.
• Modern & Sleek Aesthetics: The distinctive octagonal profile offers a clean, contemporary look that seamlessly integrates into modern architectural designs, urban landscapes, and commercial developments, enhancing overall visual appeal.
• Optimal Versatility: Designed to support a diverse array of equipment and fixtures, making them ideal for multi-purpose applications without compromising stability or appearance.
• Corrosion Resistance: Available with industry-leading protective finishes, including hot-dip galvanization and durable powder coatings, to withstand harsh weather conditions and prevent rust and degradation.
• Easy Installation & Maintenance: Engineered for straightforward installation using standard methods (direct burial or anchor bolt base). The robust construction requires minimal ongoing maintenance, reducing lifetime costs.
• Customization Options: Fully customizable in terms of height, gauge, tapering, finish, and mounting configurations to precisely meet specific project requirements and aesthetic preferences.
• Enhanced Mounting Surface: The flat facets of the octagon provide stable and secure mounting points for luminaires, cameras, signs, and other attachments, ensuring equipment is firmly fixed and optimally positioned.

Applications:

Our Octagonal Poles are the ideal choice for a multitude of applications, including:

• Street and Area Lighting: Efficiently illuminate roads, parking lots, parks, and public spaces.
• Traffic Signals & Signage: Support traffic control devices, directional signs, and informational displays.
• CCTV & Surveillance: Provide stable platforms for security cameras and monitoring equipment.
• Telecommunications: Mount antennas, small cells, and other communication infrastructure.
• Flagpoles: Display national, corporate, or decorative flags with a distinguished look.
• Solar Panel Mounts: Robust support for off-grid lighting or power generation systems.
• Decorative & Architectural Elements: Serve as a stylish design feature in urban planning and landscape architecture.

Technical Specifications:

• Material Options:
  • High-Strength Steel: ASTM A595 Grade A or A572 Grade 50 (or equivalent) for superior strength and durability.
  • Aluminum Alloys: 6061-T6 or 6063-T6 for lighter weight, marine-grade corrosion resistance, and specific aesthetic needs.
• Shape & Taper:
  • Straight (Non-Tapered): Uniform cross-section throughout the length.
  • Tapered: Gradually decreasing cross-section from base to top for enhanced aesthetics and structural efficiency. Taper rates typically 0.14-0.18 inches per foot.
• Height Range: Available from 10 feet (3 meters) to 60 feet (18 meters) and custom heights upon request.
• Base Dimensions: Vary by height and application; common ranges for steel poles:
  • Base Diameter (across flats): 6 to 18 inches (150mm to 450mm).
  • Top Diameter (across flats): 3 to 10 inches (75mm to 250mm) for tapered poles.
• Wall Thickness (Gauge): Ranging from 7 gauge (4.57mm) to 11 gauge (3.05mm) for steel, and equivalent schedules for aluminum, dependent on height and load requirements.
• Finishes:
  • Hot-Dip Galvanization: Conforming to ASTM A123/A123M for superior corrosion protection.
  • Powder Coating: Electrostatic application of polyester or epoxy powder, cured for a durable, chip-resistant finish. Available in a wide range of RAL colors.
  • Custom Finishes: Wet paint, anodized aluminum, or other specialized coatings available.
• Mounting Options:
  • Direct Embedment: Designed for burial directly into concrete foundations.
  • Anchor Base: Utilizes a steel base plate welded to the pole, typically mounted with anchor bolts to a pre-poured concrete foundation (anchor bolts and templates available).
• Access & Attachments:
  • Handholes: Standard sizes (e.g., 2"x4" or 4"x6") with reinforced frames and covers, typically 18" from the base.
  • Ground Lugs: Provided for electrical grounding.
  • Drilling Patterns: Pre-drilled bolt circles and fixture mounting holes to specification.
  • Mounting Arms: Single, twin, or custom-configured arms for various luminaires or equipment.
  • Pole Caps: Standard or decorative pole top covers.
  • Internal Wire Guides: Optional for clean wire management.
