Buy metal studs in Puerto Rico

USA-Made Galvanized Steel Stud and Track for San Juan, Ponce, Mayagüez, and Island-Wide

Contractors and builders in Puerto Rico can buy metal studs direct from The Formetal Company, a USA-owned steel stud and track manufacturer making cold-formed steel framing since 1959. We quote steel stud and track, framing accessories, and connectors for projects across the island.

Hotels and resorts, hospitals, schools, retail, and housing all need framing that holds up to salt air, humidity, and storms. Get USA-made galvanized metal studs at manufacturer-direct pricing. See our Steel Stud & Track Pricing for material costs, then request a quote for delivery to Puerto Rico.

Why Metal Framing Works in Puerto Rico

  • Built for salt air and humidity. Galvanized steel studs don’t absorb moisture, rot, or grow mold. For coastal and exterior work, G90 galvanized framing is typically specified.
  • Termite-proof. Steel framing gives termites nothing to eat.
  • Holds up after storms. Steel studs don’t swell or rot when a building gets wet, so walls stay straight and drywall stays flat.
  • Non-combustible. Metal stud framing helps meet fire-rated wall requirements.
  • Engineered connections. Hurricane winds and seismic activity put demands on wall systems. Structural steel studs and tested connectors — bypass clips, drift clips, bracing, and foundation anchors — give your engineer a system to design with.

 

Before you order, read our guide to cold-formed steel framing in coastal and high-humidity climates. It covers coating choices and detailing that protect steel near the ocean.

USA-Made Steel Stud and Track for Puerto Rico

Every steel stud and track we sell is manufactured at our plant in Forest Park, Georgia. Our full line of light gauge steel framing includes:

  • Drywall metal studs and track (non-structural) for interior walls, soffits, and ceilings, including our 20GA EQ stud

  • Gauges from 25 gauge through 10 gauge, in web depths from 1-5/8″ to 12″
  • Custom lengths up to 56 feet, cut to your wall heights so your crew isn’t cutting on site
