Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Product Liability Contingencies [Table Text Block] | As of March 31, 2015, there were 47 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 Three Months Ended March 31 (in thousands) | 2015 |  | 2014
Pending claims – Beginning | 62 |  |  | 79 |
New claims | 1 |  |  | 1 |
Settlements | — |  |  | (2 | )
Dismissals | (3 | ) |  | (9 | )
Pending claims – Ending | 60 |  |  | 69 |
Pending inactive claims(a) | 13 |  |  | 18 |
Pending active claims | 47 |  |  | 51 |
(a) | 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. There were no inactive claims dismissed or settled during the first quarter of 2015 or 2014.
