Wooden Poles

A pole's life begins in the forest and goes on for decades carrying the load of a line. In this group you will find pine from Yozgat prepared for power, communication and wire lines. The debarked trunk is cut to length, impregnated under vacuum and pressure, and stacked by class.

What a wooden pole brings to a line

• Easy to haul: far lighter than a concrete pole of the same length.
• Gives under impact: takes a vehicle strike or a storm without snapping.
• Does not conduct: the wooden body gives maintenance crews extra safety.
• Worked on site: no special tools are needed for holes and cuts.

See the difference between electricity, telephone and wire poles on the product pages, and the length and diameter limits in the technical table.

Why does a treated wooden pole live long?

Treated wooden poles carry their protection inside the body. Upland soil that freezes in winter, gets wet in spring and dries in summer weakens the foot of an unprotected pole within a few seasons. In a body protected by vacuum and pressure, the wood stays sound even though this cycle repeats for years. This protection from within is what gives the pole its long life.

Not cutting the butt after delivery and brushing preservative into holes drilled on site are the way to use all of that life.
