How CS2 skin float ranges and wear grades work
Read the item-specific float range and wear availability without assuming every finish uses the full 0–1 range.
STEP 01
Check the item’s own limits
A skin reference should show the minimum and maximum float for that finish. Those limits can be narrower than 0–1, so comparing two raw float values without checking their item ranges can be misleading.
STEP 02
Wear availability varies by finish
Not every finish can exist in every wear grade. Use the listed available grades for the specific item instead of assuming a Factory New through Battle-Scarred set applies to every skin.
STEP 03
Use a range as reference data
The NEXFRAG catalogue presents game-data float caps and available wear labels for each entry. It does not identify a particular listing’s live float, pattern seed, sticker state or market price; check the actual item details before a trade.
STEP 04
Avoid treating float as a price
Float is one property of an item, not a current valuation. Similar-looking floats can have different significance across finishes, and pattern-dependent appearances may need their own inspection; compare current exact-item listings separately.
Quick checklist
- Search for the exact skin name in the catalogue.
- Read its min/max float and available wear grades.
- Inspect the individual listing for its actual float and pattern details.
- Check current exact-item listings separately; this reference stores no prices.
