You can use a standard shoe support, but make sure you have an insulating barrier between pipe and shoe, like PTFE or neoprene.

Shoes are a normal solution for this, especially if your pipe is insulated. Similarly, you can just rest the pipe on a non-metallic pad. There are even some load rated products for this like I-rods which you can buy by NPS, height, etc.
