Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Product Liability Contingencies [Table Text Block] | As of September 30, 2014, there were approximately 50 thousand pending active claims against ITT, including Goulds Pumps, filed in various state and federal courts alleging injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. Activity related to these asserted asbestos claims during the period was as follows:
For the Nine Months Ended September 30 (in thousands) | 2014 |  | 2013
Pending claims – Beginning | 79 |  |  | 96 |
New claims | 3 |  |  | 4 |
Settlements | (2 | ) |  | (3 | )
Dismissals(a) | (12 | ) |  | (20 | )
Pending claims – Ending | 68 |  |  | 77 |
Pending inactive claims(a) | 18 |  |  | 18 |
Pending active claims | 50 |  |  | 59 |
(a) | The 2013 dismissals reported in the table above include the dismissal of approximately 12 thousand claims, that were considered pending inactive claims. There were no inactive claims dismissed during 2014. Inactive claims represent pending claims in Mississippi filed in 2004 or prior, which have been excluded from our asbestos measurement because the plaintiffs cannot demonstrate a significant compensable loss. As such, management believes these claims have little-to-no value.
