Metal Track Price List

Metal tracks, also known as wall framing tracks, are essential components in light steel framing systems. They serve as the horizontal base and top support for metal studs, making them ideal for partition walls, ceiling frames, and other drywall construction applications. Whether you’re working on a residential or commercial interior project, understanding the current prices of metal tracks is important for budgeting and material planning.


What is a Metal Track?

To begin with, a metal track is a U-shaped galvanized steel section designed to hold vertical metal studs in place. Together, these components form the skeleton of non-load-bearing walls and ceilings—often used as an alternative to traditional wood framing.

Moreover, metal tracks are commonly made from Galvanized Iron (GI) sheets, which provide excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, especially in humid or moisture-prone areas.


Common Sizes and Applications

Metal tracks come in various sizes to match the dimensions of metal studs. Standard widths include:

  • 25 mm (1 inch)
  • 50 mm (2 inches)
  • 75 mm (3 inches)
  • 100 mm (4 inches)

Each size is chosen based on the wall thickness and required stability.

In addition, metal tracks are used in the following applications:

  • Interior partition walls (gypsum or fiber cement board)
  • Ceiling frames or furring systems
  • Office cubicle dividers
  • Drywall support for residential, commercial, and institutional projects

As a result, they are a popular material for fast, clean, and fire-resistant construction systems.


Why Use Metal Tracks Instead of Wood?

While wood has traditionally been used in framing, metal tracks offer several key advantages:

  • Moisture- and termite-resistant
  • Lightweight but structurally strong
  • Faster and more precise installation
  • Fire-resistant and non-combustible
  • Consistent sizing and quality

On the other hand, wooden studs can warp, rot, or attract termites over time—especially in tropical climates like the Philippines. Therefore, metal framing has become a preferred choice for many modern builders.

Metal track price is based on the average cost per length. The standard length of metal track is 3 meters. The price currency is in Philippine Peso (Php).

Factors Affecting Metal Track Prices

Prices for metal tracks may vary depending on several key factors:

  • Size and thickness (gauge) of the metal
  • Length per piece (standard is usually 2.4m to 3m)
  • Material type (GI vs. black iron)
  • Brand and supplier
  • Order volume (retail vs. wholesale)

In addition, delivery location can influence cost, especially if sourcing from outside Metro Manila or in provincial areas.


Pro Tip: Don’t Forget the Metal Studs

Metal tracks are always used in combination with metal studs, which slide into the tracks to form the vertical frame. Therefore, when planning your material list, always pair your track order with the correct stud size and quantity.

Also, remember to include drywall screws, wall plugs, and joint compound if you’re finishing the wall with gypsum or fiber cement boards.


Conclusion

In summary, metal tracks are a durable, efficient, and cost-effective framing solution for modern interior walls and ceilings. Their resistance to pests, fire, and moisture makes them a superior choice over traditional wood framing—especially in tropical environments like the Philippines.

Therefore, knowing the latest metal track prices allows you to plan accurately, compare supplier offers, and avoid budget overruns.
