Finally got the right part.
It took returning twice to finally get the right anode, then when the right part arrived it was damaged and had to be returned. But the returns came quickly via UPS.

It was the OEM recommended part and form, fit, and function was perfect.

Minor things that help the effort.
Check overhead clearance for rod.
Check rod end will not contact heater surface.
Start with 2 drops of penetrating oil the day before;
then a bit more to help torque with impact wrench
that won't move the whole heater.
Put a clear mark on the nut to indicate movements.
Work on loosening while heater is still warm.
Reverse impact torque frequently.
Seal tape reduces needed tightening torque.
FIRST turn on the cold water valve before heat is started.
Drain a gallon or more before reheat.
Sometimes a magnesium rod can be better.
Remove rod within 3 years to check status.

A good anode rod
I received the anode rod in a timely manner. Unfortunately I haven't been able to remove the original anode rod yet from my 3 year old water heater. The original rod is giving me a hard time. I'm gonna have to buy an impact wrench or call a plumber.

Fit perfect, not .840" diameter
After speaking with customer service, they pointed me to this exact Anode, because the typical .840" diameter anode will not fit through the hole in my water heater. Great customer service and great selection of maintenance items, in stock!

Good Quality rod
I needed a 26" rod, you cut off 3". Advice is to use a 1/2" Impact to get it loose. Teflon tape on threads 2-3 wraps will do. 30 gallon AO 2018 Smith. The old rod was still good, so check it first before ordering! Might save $.
