Additional Poles

  • Round Tapered • Round Tapered (Burial) • Post Top Tapered

    Details
    We manufacture Aluminum poles from new aluminum 6061 or 6063 T6 alloy, heat treated after fabrication with seamless welding. Optional base covers are available along with multiple luminaries mountings. The removable wire way pole cover is secured with stainless steel bolts.

    All poles are engineered and EPA compliant with current AASHTO specifications and wind load conditions. Special pole sizes can be developed to meet project requirements.

  • Round Tapered • Round Tapered (Burial) • Round Straight • Square Straight

    Details
    We typically manufacture Steel poles using 11 or 7 gauge steel depending upon project load requirements. Each pole is fabricated from rolled or formed welded steel tubing of one-piece construction and has a full length longitudinal weld.

    Each pole is equipped with a reinforced handhole and locking cover plate. An electrical grounding lug is provided inside ofthe handhole. Multiple luminarie tenons or mountings are available that can match specified fixture company mounting requirements.

    Pole
    ASTM A595 Grade A steel, minimum 55 ksi.

    Base Plates
    Plasma cut to required size, minimum 36 ksi, circumferentially welded top and bottom to the pole shaft meeting A WS specifications.

    Anchor Bolts
    Fabricated from hot rolled carbon steel, minimum 55 ksi, fully galvanized with double nuts and washers.

  • Round Straight • Square Straight

    Our Fiberglass construction has numerous advantages over traditional “woven” poles, most notably a smooth surface finish and uniform wall thickness. The poles are processed in a resin bath, in which a specified color is mixed.

    This ensures that every fiber of the pole is colored (a process not possible with traditional woven construction), allowing the inside of the pole to maintain the color throughout. Sample sections of a pole are available upon request.

    Compliant to AASHTO 2001, the pole shall not exceed a maximum deflection of 10% of the pole length above the ground line when subject to the maximum simulated wind loading and shall not have more than 1% permanent deflection.

    Continental also offers a variety of steel poles to meet the needs of the Utility market. With the ability to form one piece pole sections up to 60 feet and full engineering capabilities, large diameters, lengths and shapes are obtainable.

    With continued needs for Steel poles to replace existing Wood distribution poles, we’ve taken manufacturing steps to supply this market. Our Utility section includes a complete listing of steel pole equivalents for wood distribution poles.

    As part of our ongoing effort to provide poles for every facet of the Utility market, we also manufacture Transmission and Communication poles in addition to poles for the Wind Power industry.

    Utility poles are designed and engineered to meet AASHTO specifications. In addition to Steel many of these poles can also be manufactured using our Fiberglass facility for production.
