Specs are halfway down this page.
The same supplier you mentioned has brass 10-32 rod for $35 (but I'm guessing you knew that ).
I don't know how critical the thread pitch is but you can get M5 brass rod from here for about $24.
As bmitchell82 pointed out, mild steel, zinc finish rod would be easier to bend.
