Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The preparation of consolidated annual and quarterly financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We have made a number of estimates and assumptions in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements. We can give no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates. Some of the more significant estimates include allowances for doubtful accounts, realizability of inventory, goodwill and other intangible assets, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, product liability, pensions and other postretirement benefits, asbestos, environmental and litigation matters, the valuation of deferred tax assets and sales return allowances. The impact and any associated risks related to significant accounting policies on our business operations is discussed throughout “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Note 1 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Presentation of Comprehensive Income In June 2011, the FASB amended Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 220, Comprehensive Income. The amendment eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. In accordance with the amendment an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements. Additionally, reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income will be presented on the face of the financial statements. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, which for us is January 1, 2012 with full retrospective application required. As a result, the adoption of this standard will change how we present other comprehensive income, as it is currently presented as part of our consolidated statement of changes in stockholders' equity. Goodwill Impairment Testing In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it would not be required to perform the two-step impairment test for that reporting unit. The new standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, which for us is January 1, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. We will consider this new standard when conducting our annual impairment test of goodwill. In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, which updated ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Pursuant to ASC 350, goodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step approach. Initially, the fair value of a reporting unit is compared to its carrying amount. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit; a second step of comparing the carrying amount to its implied fair value is required, as this is an indication that the reporting unit goodwill may be impaired. The new standard sets forth a requirement that the second step test must be performed in circumstances where a reporting unit has a zero or negative carrying amount and there are qualitative factors which indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010, which for us was January 1, 2011. Currently, none of our reporting units have a zero or negative carrying amount. As a result, the adoption of this standard will not have an immediate impact on the manner in which we conduct our impairment testing. Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, which will update ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, and changes the accounting for certain revenue arrangements. The new standard sets forth requirements that must be met for an entity to recognize revenue from the sale of a delivered item that is part of a multiple-element arrangement when other items have not yet been delivered and requires the allocation of arrangement consideration to each deliverable to be based on the relative selling price. ASU 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in the fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, which for us was January 1, 2011. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Presentation of Comprehensive Income

In June 2011, the FASB amended Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 220, Comprehensive Income. The amendment eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. In accordance with the amendment an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements. Additionally, reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income will be presented on the face of the financial statements. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, which for us is January 1, 2012 with full retrospective application required. As a result, the adoption of this standard will change how we present other comprehensive income, as it is currently presented as part of our consolidated statement of changes in stockholders' equity.

Goodwill Impairment Testing

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it would not be required to perform the two-step impairment test for that reporting unit. The new standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, which for us is January 1, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. We will consider this new standard when conducting our annual impairment test of goodwill.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, which updated ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Pursuant to ASC 350, goodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step approach. Initially, the fair value of a reporting unit is compared to its carrying amount. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit; a second step of comparing the carrying amount to its implied fair value is required, as this is an indication that the reporting unit goodwill may be impaired. The new standard sets forth a requirement that the second step test must be performed in circumstances where a reporting unit has a zero or negative carrying amount and there are qualitative factors which indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010, which for us was January 1, 2011. Currently, none of our reporting units have a zero or negative carrying amount. As a result, the adoption of this standard will not have an immediate impact on the manner in which we conduct our impairment testing.

Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, which will update ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, and changes the accounting for certain revenue arrangements. The new standard sets forth requirements that must be met for an entity to recognize revenue from the sale of a delivered item that is part of a multiple-element arrangement when other items have not yet been delivered and requires the allocation of arrangement consideration to each deliverable to be based on the relative selling price. ASU 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in the fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, which for us was January 1, 2011. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
