Usually pot nuts are 3/8-32 UNEF.

If you really want Stainless, McMaster-Carr 91862A318 for $3.08 is the nut, and 98449A031 ($6.27 for 100) is an internal tooth lockwasher.

More typically a nickel-plated brass nut would be what came with the pot. McMaster-Carr 91862A521 ($0.14). I think Mouser has them too but it's just a little footnote on one of their pot pages and I can't see it anymore :-).

Anyone know a source for stainless steel potentiometer nuts (assumably 3/8-24) and the internal tooth lockwashers?  I can find the nuts and washers but not sure if they're stainless.
