If it is a high chloride environment then you may get accelerated attack of the SS against the bare steel.
What is the environment?

Yes, I am worried about the external environment.
If it is a place where bare steel rusts then don;t do it.
There are plastic cradles for SS pipe.
Don't do it yourself as they need to be Cl free or things may get worse.

If this is exposed uninsulated piping (i.e. not above 400 F), you're onshore, not immediately on a seacoast and not in a tropical location, chances are that your galvanized shoes/u-bolts will last a very long time and will have no detrimental effects on the stainless pipe.
