Which bits of the screw are you worried about stripping? If it's the head, then it shouldn't be too hard to find replacement screws of the same size. You can even switch to a screw head which is less prone to stripping, such as Torx. If you still manage to strip some of the screws, then assuming you get a decent quantity of screws, you can replace them as and when they wear.

Of course if it's the female threads you're worried about, none of this helps.
