Someone had wrapped this in duct tape, but the threads are
cutting through the duct tape. Is there some other way to
pad this, so it would be a more comfortable grip handle?

Can't slide a tube over it, and wouldn't want to. The tube
would rotate, and a climber could lose grip. Foam padding
(like for pipe wrap) might not hold up for very long.

The duct tape isn't all that ideal, it's a bit slippery.
What else comes to mind?

Take it out cut a length of plumbing pipe or conduit to fit over the
threaded rod, replace.
