Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	18. Subsequent Events On May 6, 2019, Akers National Roll Company, a subsidiary of the Corporation, entered into a definitive agreement to sell certain assets, including real estate and personal property, of its Avonmore, Pennsylvania, cast roll manufacturing facility to an affiliate of WHEMCO, Inc. It is expected the transaction will close in the second half of 2019, following cessation of roll finishing operations once remaining customer commitments are fulfilled. On May 9, 2019, the shareholders of the Corporation approved an amendment to the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Corporation’s common stock from 20,000,000 shares to 40,000,000 shares.

Examples include: the sale of a capital stock issue, purchase of a business, settlement of litigation, catastrophic loss, significant foreign exchange rate changes, loans to insiders or affiliates, and transactions not in the ordinary course of business.
