Easier than that. Just use Neverseize(sp)
SS to SS under tension, or just tight fitting will have the nut bonding to the bolt. With no preventative You have to twist the bolt off. That can be a real knuckle buster with 3/8ths or 1/2". Been there, done that.

I have often read where there is a problem of the threads of SS assemblies 
becoming seized or locked together after a time in the weather and becoming 
difficult and or useless when disassembly and reassembly is required.It is my 
opinion that one can use bronze nuts with the stainless threaded component with 
no such galling occurring. It is something I have done for years with no 
trouble.Opinions welcome.JIM, W4QBQ
