Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
The Company defines its segments consistent with how internally reported financial information is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to analyze financial performance, make decisions, and allocate resources. TriMas reports its operations in three segments: Packaging, Aerospace and Specialty Products. Each of these segments has discrete financial information that is regularly evaluated by TriMas' President and Chief Executive Officer (chief operating decision maker). The chief operating decision maker uses segment adjusted operating profit when assessing segment performance, determining resource and capital allocation and developing overall strategic direction of the Company. The chief operating decision maker analyzes segment adjusted operating profit on a monthly basis by comparing actual results to forecasted and budgeted expectations to assess performance. Segment adjusted operating profit is also used in compensation related decision-making under certain employee incentive programs. Segment adjusted operating profit is defined as operating profit excluding Special Items. Special Items include: realignment and severance costs; purchase accounting charges related to the step-up of inventory to fair value; third party costs related to the labor union strike; mergers, acquisitions, diligence and transaction costs; and impairment charges.
Within each of the Company's reportable segments, there are no individual products or product families for which reported net sales accounted for more than 10% of the Company's consolidated net sales. See below for more information regarding the types of products and services provided within each reportable segment:
