Inventory Disclosure [Abstract]  
Inventories
Inventories
Inventories are stated at current cost net of reserves for excess, slow moving and obsolete inventory, less progress payments. Inventories are valued under the FIFO method, LIFO method and average cost method. Inventories at cost determined on the average cost or the FIFO methods were $371.5 million at July 2, 2017 and $268.4 million at January 1, 2017. The remainder of the inventories using the LIFO method were $83.4 million at July 2, 2017 and $68.4 million at January 1, 2017. Interim LIFO calculations are based on the Company’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs since an actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Because these estimates are subject to many factors beyond the Company’s control, interim results are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.
