SS nuts  are unlikely to gall if NeverSeize or equivalent is used on the

Or, you can try monel nuts.  They won't corrode and won't  care about the 
temperature. You likely won't find them at the local  hardware store 
though, unlike SS  nuts.

The kits from the vendors have Stainless studs and Brass nuts. They seem to  
work well.-Seth
