Stainless steel fittings

Don't forget,they make a special teflon type tape for use with Stainless fittings. I learned this the hard way, when I couldn't get two fittings apart due to galling.

Fastenal has the stuff. It's a little pricey, but it keeps the SS fittings removable.
 
There is also fiberglass strut available, but don't use it for anything longer than 1-2 feet as it can bow on you. Also in addition to special teflon tape, you could use never sieze as an alternative to reduce galling.
