Yup, ejector pins are sold by some vendors as straight wing rods.
Just cut the head off a straight (not tapered) pin.  They are all
pretty much the same industry standard of H-13 hotwork die steel
with a core of 41-45 Rc and a nitrided surface.

You can even get them from McMaster-Carr if you don't need want
to buy them by the dozen (cheaper) form a manufacturer

I was wondering about what the use for 5/16 music wire.  If for a wing
rod, several vendors supply 5/16 case hardened wing rods, and I think
ejector pins are of the same tpye.  Should be much stronget then music
wire.

Hmm ... if you don't need to bend it I'd suggest using an ejector pin.
