Running current through a post

Hi. I'm terminating my battery cable on a plastic bulkhead, running a post through, then picking it up from the other side.

Does anybody have experience with sizing a piece of threaded rod for such an application? EVTV sells bulkhead terminals which use 3/8 brass, but they won't fit in the space available (frigging bulky Tesla modules). Because my bulkhead is 1/2" PVC, I'm worried about heat softening the plastic.

AC51 and Curtis 1239.

Thanks.
