Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Note 1. Basis of Presentation General Enerpac Tool Group Corp. ("Company") is a premier industrial tools and services company serving a broad and diverse set of customers in more than 100 countries. The Company has two operating segments, Industrial Tools & Service ("IT&S") and Other, with the IT&S segment representing the only reportable segment. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial reporting and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of August 31, 2020 was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. For additional information, including the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes in the Company’s fiscal 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of financial results have been made. Such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three months ended November 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending August 31, 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted, and is likely to continue to negatively impact, the global economy. The Company's operating results and financial position will be subject to the general economic conditions created by the pandemic, and the timing and extent to which the pandemic will ultimately impact the Company's business will depend on future developments, including the timing and effectiveness of vaccines in minimizing its negative effects on macroeconomic conditions, which still remain uncertain. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which adds an impairment model that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses and is called the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) model. This impairment model is applicable to loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables as well as any other financial asset with the contractual right to receive cash. Under the new model, an allowance equal to the estimate of lifetime expected credit losses is recognized, which will result in more timely loss recognition. The guidance is intended to reduce complexity by decreasing the number of credit impairment models. The Company adopted the guidance on September 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach and there was no impact to the financial statements as a result of the adoption. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-4, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for a limited time to ease the potential burden of accounting for reference rate reform on financial reporting. This guidance applies to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates. The guidance is effective beginning on March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has not utilized any of the optional expedients or exceptions available under this ASU. The Company will continue to assess whether this ASU is applicable throughout the effective period. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions and amending and clarifying existing guidance. The guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block] | Note 2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers Nature of Goods and Services The Company generates its revenue under two principal activities, which are discussed below: Product Sales: Sales of tools, heavy-lifting solutions, and rope and cable solutions are recorded when control is transferred to the customer (i.e., performance obligation has been satisfied). For the majority of the Company’s product sales, revenue is recognized at a point in time when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which generally occurs when the product is shipped from the Company to the customer. For certain other products that are highly customized and have a limited alternative use, and for which the Company has an enforceable right of reimbursement for performance completed to date, revenue is recognized over time. We consider the input measure (efforts-expended or cost-to-cost) or output measure as a fair measure of progress for the recognition of over-time revenue associated with these custom products. For a majority of the Company’s custom products, machine hours and labor hours (efforts-expended measurement) are used as a measure of progress. Service & Rental Sales : Service contracts consist of providing highly trained technicians to perform bolting, technical services, machining and joint integrity work for our customers. These revenues are recognized over time as our customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefits provided by the Company. We consider the input measure (efforts-expended or cost-to-cost) or output measure as a fair measure of progress for the recognition of over-time revenue associated with service contracts. For a majority of the Company’s service contracts, labor hours (efforts-expended measurement) is used as the measure of progress when it is determined to be a better depiction of the transfer of control to the customer due to the timing and pattern of labor hours incurred. Revenue from rental contracts (less than a year and non-customized products) is generally recognized ratably over the contract term, depicting the customer’s consumption of the benefit related to the rental equipment. Disaggregated Revenue and Performance Obligations The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers by reportable segment and product line and by the timing of when goods and services are transferred. See Note 13, "Segment Information" for information regarding our revenue disaggregation by reportable segment and product line. The following table presents information regarding revenues disaggregated by the timing of when goods and services are transferred (in thousands): Three Months Ended November 30, 2020 2019 Revenues recognized at point in time $ 86,780 $ 104,812 Revenues recognized over time 32,650 41,862 Total $ 119,430 $ 146,674 Contract Balances The Company's contract assets and liabilities are as follows (in thousands): November 30, 2020 August 31, 2020 Receivables, which are included in accounts receivable, net $ 90,531 $ 84,170 Contract assets, which are included in other current assets 5,108 6,145 Contract liabilities, which are included in other current liabilities 3,193 2,145 Receivables: The Company performs its obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring goods or services in exchange for consideration from the customer. The Company typically invoices its customers as soon as control of an asset is transferred and a receivable for the Company is established. Accounts receivable, net is recorded at face amount of customer receivables less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for expected losses as a result of customers’ inability to make required payments. Management evaluates the aging of customer receivable balances, the financial condition of its customers, historical trends and the time outstanding of specific balances to estimate the amount of receivables that may not be collected in the future and records the appropriate provision. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $5.0 million at both November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020. Contract Assets: Contract assets relate to the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed as of the reporting date on contracts with customers. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. The Company has contract assets on contracts that are generally long-term and have revenues that are recognized over time. Contract Liabilities: As of November 30, 2020, the Company had certain contracts where there were unsatisfied performance obligations and the Company had received cash consideration from customers before the performance obligations were satisfied . The majority of these contracts relate to long-term customer contracts (project durations of greater than three months) and are recognized over time. The Company estimates that the $3.2 million will be recognized in net sales from satisfying those performance obligations within the next twelve months, with an immaterial amount recognized in periods after. Timing of Performance Obligations Satisfied at a Point in Time: The Company evaluates when the customer obtains control of the product based on shipping terms, as control will transfer, depending upon such terms, at different points between the Company's manufacturing facility or warehouse and the customer’s location. The Company considers control to have transferred upon shipment or delivery because (i) the Company has a present right to payment at that time; (ii) the legal title has been transferred to the customer; (iii) the Company has transferred physical possession of the product to the customer; and (iv) the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the product. Variable Consideration: The Company estimates whether it will be subject to variable consideration under the terms of the contract and includes its estimate of variable consideration in the transaction price based on the expected value method when it is deemed probable of being realized based on historical experience and trends. Types of variable consideration may include rebates, incentives and discounts, among others, which are recorded as a reduction to net sales at the time when control of a performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Practical Expedients & Exemptions: The Company elected to expense the incremental cost to obtaining a contract when the amortization period for such contracts would be one year or less. The Company does not disclose the value of unperformed obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which it recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed. |

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] | |
Restructuring and Related Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 3. Restructuring Charges The Company has undertaken or committed to various restructuring initiatives, including workforce reductions, leadership changes, plant consolidations to reduce manufacturing overhead, satellite office closures, the continued movement of production and product sourcing to low-cost alternatives and the centralization and standardization of certain administrative functions. Liabilities for severance are generally to be paid within twelve months, while future lease payments related to facilities vacated as a result of restructuring are to be paid over the underlying remaining lease terms. During fiscal 2019, the Company announced a new restructuring plan focused on (i) the integration of the Enerpac and Hydratight businesses (Industrial Tools & Service ("IT&S") segment), (ii) the strategic exit of certain commodity-type services in our North America Services operations (IT&S segment) and (iii) driving efficiencies within the overall corporate structure. In the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company announced the expansion and revision of this plan, which further simplifies and flattens the corporate structure through elimination of redundancies between the segment and corporate functions, while enhancing our commercial and marketing processes to become even closer to our customers. Restructuring charges associated with this plan were $0.1 million and $1.5 million in the three months ended November 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The following summarizes restructuring reserve activity for the IT&S reportable segment and corporate (in thousands): Three Months Ended November 30, 2020 Industrial Tools & Services Corporate Balance as of August 31, 2020 $ 1,443 $ 267 Restructuring charges 66 — Cash payments (432) (229) Impact of changes in foreign currency rates (4) — Balance as of November 30, 2020 $ 1,073 $ 38 Three Months Ended November 30, 2019 Industrial Tools & Services Corporate Balance as of August 31, 2019 $ 2,912 $ — Restructuring charges 1,230 235 Cash payments (1,851) (1) Other non-cash uses of reserve (1) (39) (226) Impact of changes in foreign currency rates 2 — Balance as of November 30, 2019 $ 2,254 $ 8 (1) Majority of non-cash uses of reserve represents accelerated equity vesting with employee severance agreements.

Acquisitions [Abstract] | |
Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 4. Acquisitions On January 7, 2020, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of HTL Group ("HTL"), a provider of controlled bolting products, calibration and repair services, and tool rental services. The tuck-in acquisition of HTL provided the Company with a complete line of bolting products and enhanced our European rental capabilities. The Company acquired all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of HTL for a final purchase price of $33.3 million. The final purchase price allocation resulted in $11.3 million of goodwill (which is not deductible for tax purposes), $16.1 million of intangible assets, and $6.7 million of property, plant and equipment. The intangible assets were comprised of $3.3 million of indefinite-lived tradenames, $12.1 million of amortizable customer relationships and $0.7 million of amortizable patents. The impact on the remaining balance sheet line items was not material. |

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Disposal Groups, Including Discontinued Operations, Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 5. Discontinued Operations and Other Divestiture Activities Discontinued Operations On October 31, 2019, as part of our overall strategy to become a pure-play industrial tools and services company, the Company completed the sale of the businesses comprising its former Engineered Components & Systems ("EC&S") segment to wholly owned subsidiaries of BRWS Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and affiliate of One Rock Capital Partners II, LP, for a sales price of $215.8 million, inclusive of $1.3 million of purchase price from the customary finalization of working capital negotiations in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Approximately $3.0 million of the purchase price was paid in four equal quarterly installments after closing, of which the last $0.7 million was received in the three months ended November 30, 2020 (this final payment was received greater than one year from the divestiture date and, as such, is reflected in "Cash provided by financing activities - discontinued operations" within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows). In connection with the completion of the sale in the three months ended November 30, 2019, the Company recorded a net loss of $4.2 million, comprised of a loss of $22.4 million representing the excess of the net assets (exclusive of deferred tax assets and liabilities associated with subsidiaries of the Company whose stock was sold as part of the transaction) as compared to the purchase price less costs to sell and the recognition in earnings of the cumulative effect of foreign currency exchange gains and losses during the year, largely offset by an income tax benefit of $18.2 million associated with the write off of the net deferred tax liability on subsidiaries of the EC&S segment for which the stock was divested. The Company also recognized an additional $3.3 million of impairment & divestiture costs in the three months ended November 30, 2019 associated with the accelerated vesting of restricted stock awards for employees terminated as part of the transaction and $2.7 million of additional divestiture charges which were necessary to complete the transaction. The Company maintains financial exposure associated with this divestiture due to certain retained liabilities. As the aforementioned divestiture was a part of our strategic shift to become a pure-play industrial tools and services company, the results of their operations (including the stated impairment & divestiture charges) are recorded as a component of "Loss from discontinued operations" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. The following represents the detail of "Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes" within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (in thousands): Three Months Ended November 30, 2020 2019* Net sales $ — $ 67,010 Cost of products sold — 49,749 Gross profit — 17,261 Selling, administrative and engineering expenses 295 10,832 Amortization of intangible assets — — Restructuring benefit — (11) Impairment & divestiture charges — 28,416 Operating loss (295) (21,976) Financing costs, net — 14 Other income — (104) Loss before income tax benefit (295) (21,886) Income tax benefit (71) (17,635) Net loss from discontinued operations $ (224) $ (4,251) * "Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes" for the three months ended November 30, 2019 presented in the table above includes the results of the EC&S segment for the two months ended October 31, 2019 (the divestiture date) as well as the ancillary impacts from certain retained liabilities subsequent to the divestiture. As a result of the classification of the segment as assets and liabilities held for sale for the two months ended October 31, 2019, the Company did not record amortization or depreciation expense in the results of operations in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, the Company excluded EC&S segment employees from the fiscal 2020 bonus compensation plan, hence there are no expenses associated with the plan for that period. Other Divestiture Activities On September 20, 2019, the Company completed the sale of the UNI-LIFT product line, a component of our Milwaukee Cylinder business (IT&S segment) for initial net cash proceeds of $6.0 million, which resulted in an impairment & divestiture benefit of $4.6 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019. In March 2020, the buyer of the UNI-LIFT product line extended a long-term supply agreement with a significant customer. Pursuant to the divestiture agreement, this action triggered the requirement for the buyer to pay $1.5 million of contingent proceeds, which was received by the Company in the three months ended May 31, 2020 and recorded as an "Impairment & divestiture benefit" within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in that period. After the sale of the UNI-LIFT product line, the Company determined that the remaining Milwaukee Cylinder business was a non-core asset, did not align with the strategic objectives of the Company and, as a result, the Company committed to a plan to sell this business. The Company recorded impairment & divestiture charges of $4.6 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019, comprised of impairment charges of $2.5 million representing the excess of net assets held for sale compared to the anticipated proceeds less costs to sell, $1.9 million associated with our requirement to withdraw from the multi-employer pension plan associated with that business and $0.2 million of other divestiture related charges. The Company completed the divestiture of the Milwaukee Cylinder business on December 2, 2019 for a negligible amount. The historical results of the Milwaukee Cylinder business, inclusive of the UNI-LIFT product line, (which had net sales of $2.9 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019) are not material to the condensed consolidated financial results. On October 22, 2019, the Company completed the sale of the Connectors product line (IT&S segment) for net cash proceeds of $2.7 million, which resulted in an impairment & divestiture benefit of $1.3 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019. The historical results of the Connectors product line (which had net sales of $0.2 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019) are not material to the condensed consolidated financial results. The Company modified estimates on outstanding legal matters associated with previously divested businesses and recorded a net impairment & divestiture charge of $0.1 million in the three months ended November 30, 2020. |

Debt | Note 8. Debt The following is a summary of the Company’s long-term indebtedness (in thousands): November 30, 2020 August 31, 2020 Senior Credit Facility Revolver $ 255,000 $ 255,000 Term Loan — — Total Senior Credit Facility 255,000 255,000 Less: Current maturities of long-term debt — — Debt issuance costs — — Total long-term debt, less current maturities $ 255,000 $ 255,000 Senior Credit Facility In March 2019, the Company entered into a Senior Credit Facility with a syndicate of banks to, among other things, (i) expand the multi-currency revolving line of credit from $300 million to $400 million, (ii) extend the maturity of the Company's Senior Credit Facility from May 2020 to March 2024 and (iii) modify certain other provisions of the credit agreement including a reduction in pricing. The Senior Credit Facility is comprised of a $400 million revolving line of credit and previously provided for a $200 million term loan. At November 30, 2020, there were $255.0 million of borrowings under the revolving line of credit and no borrowings under the term loan. As of that date, $139.9 million was available for borrowing under the revolving line of credit. The Senior Credit Facility also provides the option for future expansion, subject to certain conditions, through a $300 million accordion and/or a $200 million incremental term loan. Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR or a base rate, ranging from 1.125% to 2.00% in the case of loans bearing interest at LIBOR and from 0.125% to 1.00% in the case of loans bearing interest at the base rate. In addition, a non-use fee was payable quarterly on the average unused amount of the revolving line of credit ranging from 0.15% to 0.3% per annum, based on the Company's net leverage. In November 2019, the Company used the proceeds from the sale of the EC&S segment to pay off the outstanding principal balance on the term loan. In conjunction with the repayment, the Company expensed, within, “Financing costs, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, the remaining $0.6 million of associated capitalized debt issuance costs. The Senior Credit Facility contains two financial covenants, which are a maximum leverage ratio of 3.75:1 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.5:1. Certain transactions lead to adjustments to the underlying ratios, including an increase to the leverage ratio from 3.75 to 4.25 during the four fiscal quarters after a significant acquisition. The sale of the EC&S segment triggered a reduction of the minimum interest coverage ratio from 3.5 to 3.0 for any fiscal quarter ending within twelve months after the sale of the EC&S segment. In April 2020, the Company proactively amended its Senior Credit Facility to extend the interest coverage ratio at 3.0 for an additional 12 months through October 2021 to mitigate risks associated with the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants at November 30, 2020. Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility are secured by substantially all personal property assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiary guarantors and certain equity interests owned by the foreign law pledgors. Senior Notes On April 16, 2012, the Company issued $300 million of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Senior Notes”), of which $0.0 million remained outstanding as of November 30, 2020. The Senior Notes included a call feature that allowed the Company to redeem them anytime on or after June 15, 2017 at stated redemption prices that reduced to 100% on June 15, 2020, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In order to reduce interest costs, in June 2020, the Company redeemed all of the outstanding Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the settlement of accrued and unpaid interest. |

Fair Value Measurement | Note 9. Fair Value Measurements The Company assesses the inputs used to measure the fair value of financial assets and liabilities using a three-tier hierarchy. Level 1 inputs include unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and observable inputs such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity rates and yield curves. Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include management’s own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and variable rate long-term debt approximated book value at both November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020 due to their short-term nature and/or the fact that the interest rates approximated market rates.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivatives | Note 10. Derivatives All derivatives are recognized in the balance sheet at their estimated fair value. The Company does not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes. Changes in the fair value of derivatives (not designated as hedges) are recorded in earnings along with the gain or loss on the hedged asset or liability. The Company is exposed to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates due to the global nature of its operations. In order to manage this risk, the Company utilizes foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce the exchange rate risk associated with recognized non-functional currency balances. The effects of changes in exchange rates are reflected concurrently in earnings for both the fair value of the foreign currency exchange contracts and the related non-functional currency asset or liability. These derivative gains and losses offset foreign currency gains and losses from the related revaluation of non-functional currency assets and liabilities (amounts included in "Other (income) expense" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations). The U.S. dollar equivalent notional value of these short duration foreign currency exchange contracts was $16.5 million and $16.7 million at November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020, respectively. The fair value of outstanding foreign currency exchange contracts was a net asset of less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million at November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020, respectively. Net foreign currency loss (included in "Other expense" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations) related to these derivative instruments were as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended November 30, 2020 2019 Foreign currency loss, net $ (49) $ (270) |

Income Taxes | Note 12. Income Taxes The Company's global operations, acquisition activity and specific tax attributes provide opportunities for continuous global tax planning initiatives to maximize tax credits and deductions. Comparative earnings before income taxes, income tax expense and effective income tax rates from continuing operations are as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended November 30, 2020 2019 Earnings from continuing operations before income tax expense $ 7,080 $ 7,322 Income tax expense 2,258 950 Effective income tax rate 31.9 % 13.0 % The Company’s earnings from continuing operations before income taxes include earnings from foreign jurisdictions of 47% and 84% of the consolidated total for the estimated full-year fiscal 2021 and full-year 2020, respectively. Though most foreign tax rates are now in line with the U.S. tax rate of 21%, the annual effective tax rate is impacted by withholding taxes, losses in jurisdictions where no benefit can be realized, and various aspects of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, such as the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income, Foreign-Derived Intangible Income and Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax provisions. The effective tax rate for the three months ended November 30, 2020 was 31.9%, compared to 13.0% for the comparable prior-year period. The effective tax rate for the current-year period resulted in a greater expense than the comparable prior-year period primarily due to prior-year non-recurring benefits related to the adoption of proposed tax regulations in the United States. On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted tax legislation containing provisions to support businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic (the “CARES Act”), including deferment of the employer portion of certain payroll taxes, refundable payroll tax credits, and technical amendments to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The CARES Act did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended November 30, 2020. We are continuing to evaluate the future impact of the CARES Act provisions on our consolidated financial statements. |

Commitments and Contingencies The Company had outstanding letters of credit of $11.9 million at both November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020, the majority of which relate to commercial contracts and self-insured workers' compensation programs. As part of the Company's global sourcing strategy, we have entered into agreements with certain suppliers that require the supplier to maintain minimum levels of inventory to support certain products for which we require a short lead time to fulfill customer orders. We have the ability to notify the supplier that they no longer need maintain the minimum level of inventory should we discontinue manufacturing of a product during the contract period; however, we must purchase the remaining minimum inventory levels the supplier was required to maintain within a defined period of time. The Company is a party to various legal proceedings that have arisen in the normal course of business. These legal proceedings include regulatory matters, product liability, breaches of contract, employment, personal injury and other disputes. The Company has recorded reserves for loss contingencies based on the specific circumstances of each case. Such reserves are recorded when it is probable a loss has been incurred and can be reasonably estimated. The Company maintains a policy to exclude from such reserves an estimate of legal defense costs. In the opinion of management, resolution of these contingencies is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company remains contingently liable for lease payments under leases of businesses that it previously divested or spun-off in the event that such businesses are unable to fulfill their future lease payment obligations; however, the Company does not believe it is probable that it will be required to satisfy these obligations. Future minimum lease payments for these leases at November 30, 2020 were $6.5 million associated with monthly payments extending to fiscal 2025. The Company has self-disclosed sales to an Estonian customer to relevant authorities in the Netherlands as potentially violating applicable Crimea sanctions laws in that country and the European Union, as those sales were diverted to the Crimea region of Ukraine. While the investigation by authorities in the Netherlands is ongoing, the Company has concluded that it is probable it will |

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which adds an impairment model that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses and is called the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) model. This impairment model is applicable to loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables as well as any other financial asset with the contractual right to receive cash. Under the new model, an allowance equal to the estimate of lifetime expected credit losses is recognized, which will result in more timely loss recognition. The guidance is intended to reduce complexity by decreasing the number of credit impairment models. The Company adopted the guidance on September 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective approach and there was no impact to the financial statements as a result of the adoption. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-4, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for a limited time to ease the potential burden of accounting for reference rate reform on financial reporting. This guidance applies to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates. The guidance is effective beginning on March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has not utilized any of the optional expedients or exceptions available under this ASU. The Company will continue to assess whether this ASU is applicable throughout the effective period. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions and amending and clarifying existing guidance. The guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements. |

Discontinued Operations and Other Divestiture Activities Discontinued Operations On October 31, 2019, as part of our overall strategy to become a pure-play industrial tools and services company, the Company completed the sale of the businesses comprising its former Engineered Components & Systems ("EC&S") segment to wholly owned subsidiaries of BRWS Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and affiliate of One Rock Capital Partners II, LP, for a sales price of $215.8 million, inclusive of $1.3 million of purchase price from the customary finalization of working capital negotiations in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Approximately $3.0 million of the purchase price was paid in four equal quarterly installments after closing, of which the last $0.7 million was received in the three months ended November 30, 2020 (this final payment was received greater than one year from the divestiture date and, as such, is reflected in "Cash provided by financing activities - discontinued operations" within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows). In connection with the completion of the sale in the three months ended November 30, 2019, the Company recorded a net loss of $4.2 million, comprised of a loss of $22.4 million representing the excess of the net assets (exclusive of deferred tax assets and liabilities associated with subsidiaries of the Company whose stock was sold as part of the transaction) as compared to the purchase price less costs to sell and the recognition in earnings of the cumulative effect of foreign currency exchange gains and losses during the year, largely offset by an income tax benefit of $18.2 million associated with the write off of the net deferred tax liability on subsidiaries of the EC&S segment for which the stock was divested. The Company also recognized an additional $3.3 million of impairment & divestiture costs in the three months ended November 30, 2019 associated with the accelerated vesting of restricted stock awards for employees terminated as part of the transaction and $2.7 million of additional divestiture charges which were necessary to complete the transaction. The Company maintains financial exposure associated with this divestiture due to certain retained liabilities. As the aforementioned divestiture was a part of our strategic shift to become a pure-play industrial tools and services company, the results of their operations (including the stated impairment & divestiture charges) are recorded as a component of "Loss from discontinued operations" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. The following represents the detail of "Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes" within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (in thousands): Three Months Ended November 30, 2020 2019* Net sales $ — $ 67,010 Cost of products sold — 49,749 Gross profit — 17,261 Selling, administrative and engineering expenses 295 10,832 Amortization of intangible assets — — Restructuring benefit — (11) Impairment & divestiture charges — 28,416 Operating loss (295) (21,976) Financing costs, net — 14 Other income — (104) Loss before income tax benefit (295) (21,886) Income tax benefit (71) (17,635) Net loss from discontinued operations $ (224) $ (4,251) * "Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes" for the three months ended November 30, 2019 presented in the table above includes the results of the EC&S segment for the two months ended October 31, 2019 (the divestiture date) as well as the ancillary impacts from certain retained liabilities subsequent to the divestiture. As a result of the classification of the segment as assets and liabilities held for sale for the two months ended October 31, 2019, the Company did not record amortization or depreciation expense in the results of operations in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, the Company excluded EC&S segment employees from the fiscal 2020 bonus compensation plan, hence there are no expenses associated with the plan for that period. Other Divestiture Activities On September 20, 2019, the Company completed the sale of the UNI-LIFT product line, a component of our Milwaukee Cylinder business (IT&S segment) for initial net cash proceeds of $6.0 million, which resulted in an impairment & divestiture benefit of $4.6 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019. In March 2020, the buyer of the UNI-LIFT product line extended a long-term supply agreement with a significant customer. Pursuant to the divestiture agreement, this action triggered the requirement for the buyer to pay $1.5 million of contingent proceeds, which was received by the Company in the three months ended May 31, 2020 and recorded as an "Impairment & divestiture benefit" within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in that period. After the sale of the UNI-LIFT product line, the Company determined that the remaining Milwaukee Cylinder business was a non-core asset, did not align with the strategic objectives of the Company and, as a result, the Company committed to a plan to sell this business. The Company recorded impairment & divestiture charges of $4.6 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019, comprised of impairment charges of $2.5 million representing the excess of net assets held for sale compared to the anticipated proceeds less costs to sell, $1.9 million associated with our requirement to withdraw from the multi-employer pension plan associated with that business and $0.2 million of other divestiture related charges. The Company completed the divestiture of the Milwaukee Cylinder business on December 2, 2019 for a negligible amount. The historical results of the Milwaukee Cylinder business, inclusive of the UNI-LIFT product line, (which had net sales of $2.9 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019) are not material to the condensed consolidated financial results. On October 22, 2019, the Company completed the sale of the Connectors product line (IT&S segment) for net cash proceeds of $2.7 million, which resulted in an impairment & divestiture benefit of $1.3 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019. The historical results of the Connectors product line (which had net sales of $0.2 million in the three months ended November 30, 2019) are not material to the condensed consolidated financial results. The Company modified estimates on outstanding legal matters associated with previously divested businesses and recorded a net impairment & divestiture charge of $0.1 million in the three months ended November 30, 2020. | ||||||
