Looking for Fiber-Reinforced Reaction Bonded SiC tubes

I am trying to upgrade a single-ended recuperative burner's radiant tube. The current tube is 6" OD, ~6' long, made of Duraloy 22H, and cantilevered out from the furnace wall. I would like to use a SiC tube, but as SiC doesn't work well in any high tension application, I am concerned about the cantilevered support. Since the support style is non-negotiable, I was wondering if anyone has ever seen a fiber-reinforced SiC?
