It is just called roundbar (as long as you know the grade of material required). In Canada we have a place called Metal Supermarkets….your area may have something similar.

It is most commonly used to reinforce concrete walls and other masonry structures. I would just Google "where to buy rebar" and you should come up with a number of places who sell it.
