Centrecon Series
“M” Medium Octagonal Pole - Embedded
Ameron Centrecon Series “M” prestressed concrete lighting poles provide the light pattern
required for shopping centers, parking lots, green belts or other areas requiring decorative and
roadway lighting. Application can be post top, mast arm or side mounted. These strong, durable
poles are available in various aggregates and finishes.
General Information
Ameron’s Centrecon Series poles are
symmetrically tapered spun-cast,
prestressed concrete shafts for either
base mounted or embedded
installations to provide dense, high
strength, centrifugally cast concrete
with high-tensile, solid steel
prestressing wires, uniformly wrapped
with spiral welded wire cage at a
controlled pitch for torsional
reinforcement. Ameron poles conform
to applicable sections of ACI, AASHTO,
ASTM and UBC standards.
Surface Treatment
The concrete shafts are lightly blasted
to expose the texture and beauty of
the natural and terrazzo aggregates
while maintaining sharp definition of
details and patterns.
Colors and Finishes
Standard, pre-formulated and custom
aggregate colors are available. See
separate aggregate sheet for details.
Ameron offers Amershield , a
premium graffiti-resistant coating, plus
an assortment of durable sealers and
protectants that further enhance colors,
protect the concrete surface and aid in
the removal of graffiti.
