AUG | Torque (Factory New)

The AUG | Torque (Factory New) is a Restricted rifle skin with a custom paint job of black, white, and yellow robotics-inspired panels. Factory New is the top of its float range, showing the design at its sharpest before any wear sets in.

Design

Torque leans on a mechanical, almost blueprint-like look, splitting the AUG's body into black, white, and yellow sections that read as gears and circuitry rather than a single flat color. It's a community design credited to RaekenTheRock, built around that robotics theme throughout.

AUG | Torque (Factory New) Float and Wear

Torque runs a float range of 0.00–0.50, and Factory New sits right at the bottom of it. At this grade the yellow panels stay bright and the white sections show no grime, so every edge of the robotics pattern reads cleanly. It's the version to grab if you want the design exactly as painted.

AUG | Torque Rarity

Rarity: Restricted — the purple tier, one step below Classified among the standard weapon grades. It's an uncommon pull rather than an everyday one.

AUG | Torque Case and Collection

Torque belongs to The Huntsman Collection and comes out of the Huntsman Weapon Case, which arrived with The Hunt Begins update in May 2014. The Restricted tier as a whole drops at roughly 15.98% from that case, a rate shared across the tier's skins rather than unique to this one.

AUG | Torque Patterns

There's no random pattern roll on Torque — the black, white, and yellow panels sit in the same spots on every copy, so there's no paint seed or "blue gem" worth hunting. Wear and float are the only things separating one copy from the next.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version of this finish exists, tracking confirmed kills with a counter that stays with the item through trades and sales; it's a scarcer, pricier pull than the standard skin. There's no Souvenir version, since Souvenir weapons only ever come from Major-tournament packages, and Torque was never offered in one.

AUG | Torque Price

Factory New sits at the top of the Torque price ladder, the most expensive grade for the sharpest possible look. It's an affordable mid-tier pick even at its best condition, so it doesn't take a huge budget to land the cleanest copy. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Factory New worth the extra cost over Minimal Wear?

If you want the yellow and white panels at their brightest with zero visible grime, yes — Factory New is the only grade that guarantees it. Minimal Wear looks close but not identical, so the choice comes down to how much a flawless finish matters to you over saving a bit of money.

What are the best gloves for the AUG | Torque?

Its black, white, and yellow scheme pairs naturally with gloves that pick up the yellow accents or lean into a black-and-white base, giving you a coordinated mechanical look. A yellow-highlighted or black driver-style pair makes for the best AUG Torque glove combo without clashing with the panel colors.

How rare is the AUG | Torque?

It's a Restricted-grade skin, one tier below Classified, so it's genuinely uncommon rather than a frequent drop. Combined with the Huntsman Weapon Case no longer being in the active drop pool, most Factory New copies today come from the market rather than a fresh unbox.
