18 Foot Aluminum Round Straight Anchor Base 5in

The ALS-ARDS-5181-AB is an 18-foot round straight aluminum light pole built with an anchor base (AB) for bolt-down installation to a concrete foundation. Its round profile gives it a clean, streamlined appearance for architectural and site-lighting projects, while the aluminum construction provides corrosion resistance and lighter handling weight than comparable steel poles. At an 18' mounting height, this model is well suited for walkways, entrances, pedestrian areas, and general site-lighting applications where a round pole profile is preferred and moderate mounting height is required. The 5" diameter shaft provides more pole capacity than smaller round poles, making it a practical choice when fixture size, bracket loading, or wind exposure call for a stronger aluminum pole. The anchor-base design allows the pole to be installed on a concrete foundation and serviced later without excavation. For wind-load planning, this model is rated at 1.6 EPA @ 120 mph and uses a 7.75" bolt circle. Keep the total projected area of the luminaire, brackets, and accessories within the pole’s EPA rating, and verify foundation requirements for the specific installation.
