2" PVC vertical supports: Pipe stramps or U Bolts

I have a 2" line running vertically - about a 4' section. This is for a pump-out on a dock (sewage).

I'm replacing all the support backing and hardware with stainless. Currently the pipe is supported with pipe straps. I was thinking of using straps again but I can't seem to source them in stainless. I can get U-bolts in stainless but was thinking the larger amount of surface area on the pipe strap might be safer.

Thoughts?

When I search online many sources for stainless steel clamps appear so you can go either way; clamps or u bolts. The two bolt pipe strap are about $15 in stainless.
