    Zinc-Plated Finish vs plain finish for threaded rod?

    I'm going to order from mcmaster 3/8 24 threaded rod grade B7 and I'd like to know which one would be better to buy plain finish or Zinc and Yellow Chromate finish? The price is almost the same.

    I'm going to use them for my home made CNC to drive X, Y, Z tables.
