Mag 12 Safe for submersible return pump?

[tranvictor]

Would nylon screws keep up with the constant vibrations with the pump? Or would they wear out real quick, and I would need to keep a constant supply?

Any Rona should have a large selection of SS screws, but I have never worried about a tiny bit of rust , but as Delphinus said clean off the rust and a dab of silicone will do

I had a Mag 12 running as a submersible for 2 or 3 years without any trouble. I noticed a slight bit of rust but it seemed it was just a very fine coating on the surface. The screws did not appear to be breaking down at all.

Ditto. Just replace the cover hardware as required.
