Flotación Database & Pattern Tools Guide 2026: CSFloat, FloatDB & More
Flotación databases track every skin’s wear value, enabling traders to find rare low floats, verify item conditions, and discover valuable patterns. These tools are essential for serious traders.
Understanding Valor de Floats
Every skin has a float value (0.00 to 1.00):
- 0.00-0.07: Nuevo de Fábrica
- 0.07-0.15: Desgaste Mínimo
- 0.15-0.38: Probado en Campo
- 0.38-0.45: Bien Usado
- 0.45-1.00: Marcado por Batalla
Flotación Premium
Lower float = less wear = higher value. A 0.001 float can be worth 10x+ more than a 0.069 float, despite both being Nuevo de Fábrica.
