SS thread strength

Can anyone provide reference for the strength of stainless steel threads? We have a 2" line rising up 150' in a pipe chase. It is supported at the top and bottom. If the pipe lifted off the bottom support would the threads carry the full load dangling from the top. This is just drinking water. I've suggested offsetting midway and supporting again to splitt the load. Are there any pipe chase experts out there for tall buildings. Thanks for the help!
