Float Value Guide
Everything about float values and wear conditions
Understanding CS2 Float Values
Float value is a number between 0 and 1 that determines the exact wear condition of a CS2 skin. Lower float values usually mean less wear and better condition, while higher values mean more visible wear.
Float is permanently assigned when a skin is created. It does not change through gameplay, trades, or time.

Float Value FAQ
Float value is a number between 0 and 1 that determines the exact wear condition of a CS2 skin. Lower float values mean less wear, while higher values mean more wear.
The 5 wear conditions are Factory New 0.00-0.07, Minimal Wear 0.07-0.15, Field-Tested 0.15-0.38, Well-Worn 0.38-0.45, and Battle-Scarred 0.45-1.00.
Not always. Lower float generally means better condition and higher price, but some skins such as Blackiimov AWP or certain Case Hardened patterns can be more valuable at higher floats because of unique appearance characteristics.
No. Float value is permanently assigned when a skin is unboxed or created and never changes.
