does it work for the metal studs? null

NO! Metal studs require extra bracing installed in the wall or at least special mounting hardware, but on a mount/tv this heavy, I would suggest wood bracing in the wall. Another way is a large piece of wood bolted to the wall (as many studs as you can with heavy duty butterfly anchors behind the metal) to spread the weight out, then mount to the wood. Either way, consult a pro unless you know what you're doing.
