CS2 Wear Values & Float Ranges: Complete Guide to Skin Conditions (2026)
- ▸Wear value (float) ranges from 0.00 (pristine) to 1.00 (heavily scratched), divided into 5 conditions: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred.
- ▸Factory New (0.00–0.07) commands the highest prices; a 0.001 float AWP Dragon Lore can sell for 40% more than a 0.06 one.
- ▸Some skins have float caps—e.g., AWP Dragon Lore maxes at 0.70, making Battle-Scarred versions rarer and sometimes pricier than Field-Tested.

Every CS2 skin has a hidden wear value (float) that determines its visual condition. This number, stored as a 32-bit float between 0.00 and 1.00, controls the amount of scratches, fading, and patina applied to the weapon finish. The lower the float, the cleaner the skin looks. Valve groups these floats into five named wear tiers, but the exact float within a tier can swing the price by hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
Understanding wear values is critical for traders, collectors, and anyone buying skins as an investment. A skin with a float just inside the Factory New boundary (e.g., 0.069) may look nearly identical to a Minimal Wear piece, yet the price gap can be 2–3x. Conversely, a high-float Battle-Scarred skin with a unique pattern can become a collector’s item precisely because of its extreme wear.
