Anti-seize helps greatly but is still not a complete solution.

I agree with Ron on this. The stainless alloys that are readily available to me, on bolts and nuts, the threads cross thread VERY easily and many you can not disassemble and need to be cut out.

The "generic term" of stainless steel and the term of corrosion resistant high strength material should be substituted.

Find a better material to make them from.
