Most TV mounts in the market are designed to be installed in either wooden studs or concrete, but it's also possible to mount a TV into metal studs. The process is virtually the same, but you will need a few additional tools and equipment.
ClarkDietrich S162 (CSJ) members have a 1-5/8" flange and a 1/2" return and are considered the industry standard. S162 members are preferred for most curtain wall applications.
Metal studs aren't designed to hang heavy loads on them. When you build with them, you plan ahead so you can double them up with 2X's in them to handle loads such as kitchen wall cabinets and TV mounts. I think it's mostly an issue of fasteners pulling out, so use plenty of fine-thread screws.
Wood studs are heavier, stronger and can support more weight than most metal studs. Wood studs are easy to source, and contractors will have more experience working with them. Lumber is easy to cut and does not require specialized tools.
A 2x4 stud is actually 1.5″ x 3.5″ so the void behind the sheetrock is 3.5″. Walls can be built with different size lumber or orientation. Some outside walls use 2x6 lumber for either strength or more insulation so the depth would be 5.5″ since the 2x6 is 1.5″x5. 5″.
Strength and Weight Considerations Cold-formed galvanized steel studs consist of thinner but stronger steel than their wood counterparts. One 16g 3 5⁄8 inch metal stud can support over 500 lbs mounted near the center. So capacity to handle heavy items is usually not an issue.
Heavier gauge metal studs are used in load bearing walls and structural applications such as exterior walls. Lighter gauge metal studs are used in non-load bearing applications such as some interior walls, half-walls, and partitions. Framing techniques for metal studs are similar to those of wood construction.
The gauges typically used for steel studs range from 25 gauge, being the thinnest, to 16 gauge, the thickest. Residential construction predominantly employs 25 to 20 gauge, whereas commercial projects often opt for the thicker 20 to 16 gauge studs for enhanced strength.
