I'd like to know, how many jar rods does an American 8 sided visible have and what diameter are they?

Does anyone know if the pump has 8 or 10 rods around the cylinder? They look like 3/8, or are they 1/2" diameter?

Thank you both, I'm building one from scratch and only have photos to work off of.
