Are these pushrods trash??

I just got a set of pushrods, supposed to have been unused. I rolled them across my countertop tonight and I found that a few of them had a small amount of fluctuation as it was rolling. We're talking less then a millimeter. The pushrod rolls freely and the bend isnt noticable by holding it up and just looking at it. They are supposed to be chromoly pushrods. Are they trashed??

Well the fact that they are used doesnt really bother me as long as they are still usable. From what I described do u think they sound usable still??

roll them over a peice of glass. If they are bent at all I would not use them.
