I worked for a contractor installing traffic light signals. All hardware was stainless steel. We used wax on the threads to prevent seizing. The cheapest method is to buy toilet bowl sealing wax rings, and smear some wax on the threads.

As you wrote, stainless bolts screwed into stainless nuts often seize.
