Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Fiscal Year . The fiscal year of Graco Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) is 52 or 53 weeks, ending on the last Friday in December. The years ended December 25, 2015 , December 26, 2014 and December 27, 2013 , were 52-week years. Basis of Statement Presentation . The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions. As of December 25, 2015 , all subsidiaries are 100 percent owned. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with 2015 presentation, but had no effect on previously reported net earnings or shareholders’ equity. As more fully described in Note M (Divestiture), in 2015, the Company sold the Liquid Finishing business assets acquired in 2012 that were held as a cost-method investment. Investment income in the Company’s consolidated statements of earnings includes the pre-tax gain on the sale, net of transaction and other related expenses, along with dividend income received prior to the sale from after-tax earnings of Liquid Finishing. Foreign Currency Translation . The functional currency of certain subsidiaries is the local currency. Accordingly, adjustments resulting from the translation of those subsidiaries’ financial statements into U.S. dollars are charged or credited to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for all other foreign subsidiaries. Accordingly, gains and losses from the translation of foreign currency balances and transactions of those subsidiaries are included in other expense (income), net. Accounting Estimates . The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair Value Measurements. The three levels of inputs in the fair value measurement hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 – based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets Level 2 – based on significant observable inputs Level 3 – based on significant unobservable inputs Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and fair value measurement level were as follows (in thousands): Level 2015 2014 Assets Cash surrender value of life insurance 2 $ 12,856 $ 13,187 Forward exchange contracts 2 107 280 Total assets at fair value $ 12,963 $ 13,467 Liabilities Contingent consideration 3 $ 9,600 $ — Deferred compensation 2 2,958 2,676 Total liabilities at fair value $ 12,558 $ 2,676 Contracts insuring the lives of certain employees who are eligible to participate in certain non-qualified pension and deferred compensation plans are held in trust. Cash surrender value of the contracts is based on performance measurement funds that shadow the deferral investment allocations made by participants in certain deferred compensation plans. The deferred compensation liability balances are valued based on amounts allocated by participants to the underlying performance measurement funds. The Company’s policy and accounting for forward exchange contracts are described below, in Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Contingent consideration liability represents the estimated value (using a probability-weighted expected return approach) of future payments to be made to previous owners of an acquired business based on its future revenues (see Note L, Acquisitions). Disclosures related to other fair value measurements are included below in Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, in Note F (Debt) and in Note J (Retirement Benefits). Cash Equivalents . All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable includes trade receivables of $217 million in 2015 and $207 million in 2014 . Other receivables totaled $9 million in 2015 and $8 million in 2014 . Inventory Valuation . Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost method is used for valuing most U.S. inventories. Inventories of foreign subsidiaries are valued using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost method. Other Current Assets. Amounts included in other current assets were (in thousands): 2015 2014 Prepaid income taxes $ 9,844 $ 10,849 Restricted cash 9,518 — Prepaid expenses and other 9,715 8,525 Total $ 29,077 $ 19,374 Cash balances included within other current assets were restricted to funding of certain self-insured loss reserves. Property, Plant and Equipment . For financial reporting purposes, plant and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives, primarily by using the straight-line method as follows: Buildings and improvements 10 to 30 years Leasehold improvements lesser of 5 to 10 years or life of lease Manufacturing equipment lesser of 5 to 10 years or life of equipment Office, warehouse and automotive equipment 3 to 10 years Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill has been assigned to reporting units.

Estimated future annual amortization is as follows (excluding amounts related to businesses acquired subsequent to the end of 2015 ): $17.1 million in 2016 , $16.8 million in 2017 , $16.5 million in 2018 , $16.3 million in 2019 , $16.3 million in 2020 and $79.4 million thereafter. Other Assets. Components of other assets were (in thousands): 2015 2014 Cash surrender value of life insurance $ 12,856 $ 13,187 Capitalized software 2,599 3,596 Equity method investment 6,129 5,859 Deposits and other 2,863 3,565 Total $ 24,447 $ 26,207 The Company has entered into contracts insuring the lives of certain employees who are eligible to participate in certain non-qualified pension and deferred compensation plans. These insurance contracts will be used to fund the non-qualified pension and deferred compensation arrangements. The insurance contracts are held in a trust and are available to general creditors in the event of the Company’s insolvency. Changes in cash surrender value are recorded in operating expense and were not significant in 2015 and 2014. In 2013, increases in cash surrender value totaled $1.6 million and were offset by expenses related to the non-qualified pension and deferred compensation plans funded by the insurance contracts. Capitalized software is amortized over its estimated useful life (generally 2 to 5 years ) beginning at date of implementation. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The Company evaluates long-lived assets (including property and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangible assets not subject to amortization are also reviewed for impairment annually in the fourth quarter. There were no write-downs of long-lived assets in the periods presented. Other Current Liabilities. Components of other current liabilities were (in thousands): 2015 2014 Accrued self-insurance retentions $ 6,908 $ 7,089 Accrued warranty and service liabilities 7,870 7,609 Accrued trade promotions 8,522 7,697 Payable for employee stock purchases 8,825 9,126 Customer advances and deferred revenue 9,449 8,918 Income taxes payable 1,308 5,997 Other 32,208 23,414 Total $ 75,090 $ 69,850 Self-Insurance. The Company is self-insured for certain losses and costs relating to product liability, workers’ compensation, employee medical benefit claims and representations and warranties associated with the Liquid Finishing business divestiture. The Company has stop-loss coverage in order to limit its exposure to significant claims. Accrued self-insurance retentions are based on claims filed, estimates of claims incurred but not reported, and other actuarial assumptions. Self-insured reserves totaled $11.2 million as of December 25, 2015 , including $4.3 million classified as other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. A portion of our self-insured losses are managed through a wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary. Product Warranties. A liability is established for estimated future warranty and service claims that relate to current and prior period sales. The Company estimates warranty costs based on historical claim experience and other factors including evaluating specific product warranty issues. Following is a summary of activity in accrued warranty and service liabilities (in thousands): 2015 2014 Balance, beginning of year $ 7,609 $ 7,771 Assumed in business acquisition — 12 Charged to expense 6,812 6,069 Margin on parts sales reversed 1,908 1,920 Reductions for claims settled (8,459 ) (8,163 ) Balance, end of year $ 7,870 $ 7,609 Revenue Recognition . Sales are recognized when revenue is realized or realizable and has been earned. The Company’s policy is to recognize revenue when risk and title passes to the customer. This is generally on the date of shipment, however certain sales have terms requiring recognition when received by the customer. In cases where there are specific customer acceptance provisions, revenue is recognized at the later of customer acceptance or shipment (subject to shipping terms). Payment terms are established based on the type of product, distributor capabilities and competitive market conditions. Rights of return are typically contractually limited, amounts are estimable, and the Company records provisions for anticipated returns and warranty claims at the time revenue is recognized. Historically, sales returns have been less than 3 percent of sales. Provisions for sales returns are recorded as a reduction of net sales, and provisions for warranty claims are recorded in selling, marketing and distribution expenses. From time to time, the Company may promote the sale of new products by agreeing to accept returns of superseded products. In such cases, provisions for estimated returns are recorded as a reduction of net sales. Trade promotions are offered to distributors and end users through various programs, generally with terms of one year or less. Such promotions include cooperative advertising arrangements, rebates based on annual purchases and sales growth, coupons and reimbursement for competitive products. Payment of incentives may take the form of cash, trade credit, promotional merchandise or free product. Under cooperative advertising arrangements, the Company reimburses the distributor for a portion of its advertising costs related to the Company’s products; estimated costs are accrued at the time of sale and classified as selling, marketing and distribution expense. Rebates are accrued based on the program rates and progress toward the estimated annual sales amount and sales growth, and are recorded as a reduction of sales (cash, trade credit) or cost of products sold (free goods). The estimated costs related to coupon programs are accrued at the time of sale and classified as selling, marketing and distribution expense or cost of products sold, depending on the type of incentive offered. Shipping and Handling. Shipping and handling costs incurred for the delivery of goods to customers are included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are included in net sales. Earnings Per Common Share . Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net earnings per share is computed after giving effect to the exercise of all dilutive outstanding option grants. Comprehensive Income. Comprehensive income is a measure of all changes in shareholders’ equity except those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners, and includes such items as net earnings, certain foreign currency translation items, changes in the value of qualifying hedges and pension liability adjustments. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities . The Company accounts for all derivatives, including those embedded in other contracts, as either assets or liabilities and measures those financial instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on their intended use and designation. As part of its risk management program, the Company may periodically use forward exchange contracts to manage known market exposures. Terms of derivative instruments are structured to match the terms of the risk being managed and are generally held to maturity. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. All other contracts that contain provisions meeting the definition of a derivative also meet the requirements of, and have been designated as, normal purchases or sales. The Company’s policy is to not enter into contracts with terms that cannot be designated as normal purchases or sales. The Company periodically evaluates its monetary asset and liability positions denominated in foreign currencies. The Company enters into forward contracts or options, or borrows in various currencies, in order to hedge its net monetary positions. These instruments are recorded at fair value and the gains and losses are included in other expense, net. The notional amounts of contracts outstanding as of December 25, 2015 , totaled $24 million . The Company believes it uses strong financial counterparties in these transactions and that the resulting credit risk under these hedging strategies is not significant. The Company uses significant other observable inputs (level 2 in the fair value hierarchy) to value the derivative instruments used to hedge net monetary positions, including reference to market prices and financial models that incorporate relevant market assumptions. The fair market value and balance sheet classification of such instruments follows (in thousands): Balance Sheet Classification 2015 2014 Gain (loss) on foreign currency forward contracts Gains $ 296 $ 280 Losses (189 ) — Net Accounts receivable $ 107 $ 280 Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a final standard on revenue from contracts with customers. The new standard sets forth a single comprehensive model for recognizing and reporting revenue. The new standard is effective for the Company in its fiscal year 2018 and permits the use of either a retrospective or a cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, and has not yet selected a transition method. Effective for 2015, the Company adopted ASU 2015-04, which allows for the measurement of defined benefit retirement obligations and related plan assets as of the calendar month-end that is closest to the plan sponsor’s fiscal year-end. For 2015, the Company measured all plan obligations and assets as of December 31, 2015. Effective at the end of 2015, the Company adopted ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes , which requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities to be classified as non-current. Balances as of December 26, 2014 were restated to conform with 2015 classification, resulting in decreases in previously reported 2014 current assets and liabilities of $20 million and $2 million , respectively, with corresponding increases in non-current deferred tax assets and liabilities. |

Segment Reporting, Measurement Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | Segment Information The Company has six operating segments which are aggregated into three reportable segments: Industrial, Process and Contractor. Beginning with the first quarter of 2015 , the Company revised the presentation of its financial reporting segments. Operations of the Process and the Oil and Natural Gas divisions, historically included in the Industrial segment, are now aggregated with the Lubrication division (formerly reported as a separate segment) in the newly-formed Process segment. This change aligns the types of products offered and markets served within the segments. Prior year segment information has been restated to conform to 2015 reporting. A summary of the Company’s reportable segments follows. The Industrial segment includes our Industrial Products and Applied Fluid Technologies divisions. The Industrial segment markets equipment and pre-engineered packages for moving and applying paints, coatings, sealants, adhesives and other fluids. Markets served include automotive and vehicle assembly and components production, wood and metal products, rail, marine, aerospace, farm, construction, bus, recreational vehicles, and various other industries. The Process segment includes our Process, Oil and Natural Gas, and Lubrication divisions. The Process segment markets pumps, valves, meters and accessories to move and dispense chemicals, oil and natural gas, water, wastewater, petroleum, food, lubricants and other fluids. Markets served include food and beverage, dairy, oil and natural gas, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, electronics, wastewater, mining, fast oil change facilities, service garages, fleet service centers, automobile dealerships and industrial lubrication applications. The Contractor segment remains unchanged. The Contractor segment markets sprayers for architectural coatings for painting, corrosion control, texture, and line striping. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The cost of manufacturing for each segment is based on product cost, and expenses are based on actual costs incurred along with cost allocations of shared and centralized functions based on activities performed, sales or space utilization. Depreciation expense is charged to the manufacturing or operating cost center that utilizes the asset, and is then allocated to segments on the same basis as other expenses within that cost center. Reportable segments are defined by product. Segments are responsible for development, manufacturing, marketing and sales of their products. This allows for focused marketing and efficient product development. The segments share common purchasing, certain manufacturing, distribution and administration functions.

Unallocated assets include cash, allowances and valuation reserves, deferred income taxes, certain capital items and other assets. Unallocated assets decreased in 2015 due to the sale of the Liquid Finishing business assets (see Note M, Divestiture).

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes In 2015, the Company asserted that it will indefinitely reinvest earnings of foreign subsidiaries to support expansion of its international business. The change in assertion decreased deferred income taxes related to undistributed foreign earnings and reduced the effective tax rate compared to prior years. As of December 25, 2015 , the amount of cash held outside the United States was not significant to the Company’s liquidity and was available to fund investments abroad. If the Company repatriated all foreign earnings, the estimated effect on income taxes payable would be an increase of approximately $9 million as of December 25, 2015 . Earnings before income tax expense consist of (in thousands): 2015 2014 2013 Domestic $ 402,453 $ 266,627 $ 238,928 Foreign 72,260 48,446 49,894 Total $ 474,713 $ 315,073 $ 288,822 Income tax expense consists of (in thousands): 2015 2014 2013 Current Domestic Federal $ 117,883 $ 73,584 $ 64,753 State and local 4,576 2,775 2,470 Foreign 18,115 12,263 11,569 140,574 88,622 78,792 Deferred Domestic (10,175 ) 2,497 (553 ) Foreign (1,399 ) (1,619 ) (239 ) (11,574 ) 878 (792 ) Total $ 129,000 $ 89,500 $ 78,000 Income taxes paid were $150.5 million in 2015 , $92.1 million in 2014 and $78.0 million in 2013 . A reconciliation between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate follows: 2015 2014 2013 Statutory tax rate 35 % 35 % 35 % Tax effect of international operations (3 ) (1 ) (1 ) State taxes, net of federal effect 1 1 1 U.S. general business tax credits (1 ) (1 ) (2 ) Domestic production deduction (2 ) (3 ) (3 ) Dividends from Liquid Finishing (3 ) (3 ) (3 ) Effective tax rate 27 % 28 % 27 % Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.

The difference between the deferred income tax provision and the change in net deferred income taxes is due to the change in other comprehensive income (loss) items and the impact of acquisitions. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2009. The Company records penalties and accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. Total reserves for uncertain tax positions were not material. |

The fair value of variable rate borrowings approximates carrying value. The Company uses significant other observable inputs to estimate fair value (level 2 of the fair value hierarchy) based on the present value of future cash flows and rates that would be available for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. On June 26, 2014, the Company executed an amendment to its revolving credit agreement, extending the expiration date to June 26, 2019. The amended agreement with a syndicate of lenders provides up to $500 million of committed credit, available for general corporate purposes, working capital needs, share repurchases and acquisitions. The Company may borrow up to $50 million under the swingline portion of the facility for daily working capital needs. Under terms of the amended revolving credit agreement, loans denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either a base rate or a LIBOR-based rate. Loans denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars bear interest at a LIBOR-based rate. The base rate is an annual rate equal to a margin ranging from zero percent to 0.875 percent , depending on the Company’s cash flow leverage ratio (debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and extraordinary non-operating or non-cash charges and expenses) plus the highest of (i) the bank’s prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5 percent , or (iii) one-month LIBOR plus 1.5 percent . In general, LIBOR-based loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 1 percent to 1.875 percent , depending on the Company’s cash flow leverage ratio. The Company is also required to pay a fee on the undrawn amount of the loan commitment at an annual rate ranging from 0.15 percent to 0.30 percent , depending on the Company’s cash flow leverage ratio. On December 25, 2015 , the Company had $545 million in lines of credit, including the $500 million in committed credit facilities described above and $45 million with foreign banks. The unused portion of committed credit lines was $412 million as of December 25, 2015 . In addition, the Company has unused, uncommitted lines of credit with foreign banks totaling $26 million . Borrowing rates under these credit lines vary with the prime rate, rates on domestic certificates of deposit and the London Interbank market. The Company pays facility fees of up to 0.15 percent per annum on certain of these lines. No compensating balances are required. Various debt agreements require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios as to cash flow leverage and interest coverage. The Company is in compliance with all financial covenants of its debt agreements as of December 25, 2015 .

Share-Based Awards, Purchase Plans and Compensation Cost | Share-Based Awards, Purchase Plans and Compensation Cost Stock Option and Award Plan. The Company has a stock incentive plan under which it grants stock options and share awards to directors, officers and other employees. Option price is the market price on the date of grant. Options become exercisable at such time, generally over three or four years , and in such installments as set by the Company, and expire ten years from the date of grant. Restricted share awards have been made to certain key employees under the plan. The market value of restricted stock at the date of grant is charged to operations over the vesting period. Compensation cost charged to operations for restricted share awards was $0.1 million in 2015 , $0.3 million in 2014 and $0.5 million in 2013 . Individual nonemployee directors of the Company may elect to receive, either currently or deferred, all or part of their annual retainer, and/or payment for attendance at Board or Committee meetings, in the form of shares of the Company’s common stock instead of cash. Under this arrangement, the Company issued 5,963 shares in 2015 , 4,867 shares in 2014 and 6,079 shares in 2013 . The expense related to this arrangement is not significant. The Company has a stock appreciation plan that provides for payments of cash to eligible foreign employees based on the change in the market price of the Company’s common stock over a period of time. Compensation cost related to this plan was $0.1 million in 2015 , $1.0 million in 2014 and $1.9 million in 2013 .

Options outstanding as of December 25, 2015 , include options granted under three plans that were replaced by subsequent plans. No shares are available for future grants under those plans. Share-based Compensation. The Company recognized share-based compensation cost of $19.2 million in 2015 , $17.2 million in 2014 and $16.5 million in 2013 , which reduced net income by $13.8 million , or $0.23 per weighted diluted common share in 2015 , $12.8 million , or $0.21 per weighted diluted common share in 2014 and $12.6 million , or $0.20 per weighted diluted common share in 2013 . As of December 25, 2015 , there was $10.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested options, expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.8 years . The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions and results: 2015 2014 2013 Expected life in years 6.5 6.5 5.9 Interest rate 1.7 % 2.0 % 1.3 % Volatility 35.0 % 36.1 % 35.4 % Dividend yield 1.6 % 1.5 % 1.6 % Weighted average fair value per share $ 23.18 $ 24.83 $ 19.44 Expected life is estimated based on vesting terms and exercise and termination history. Interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rate on zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the option. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility over a period commensurate with the expected life of options. The fair value of employees’ purchase rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was estimated on the date of grant. The benefit of the 15 percent discount from the lesser of the fair market value per common share on the first day and the last day of the plan year was added to the fair value of the employees’ purchase rights determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions and results: 2015 2014 2013 Expected life in years 1.0 1.0 1.0 Interest rate 0.2 % 0.1 % 0.2 % Volatility 18.9 % 21.4 % 26.0 % Dividend yield 1.6 % 1.4 % 1.7 % Weighted average fair value per share $ 16.51 $ 17.81 $ 14.16 |

Compensation and Retirement Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Retirement Benefits | Retirement Benefits The Company has a defined contribution plan, under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, which provides retirement benefits to most U.S. employees. For all employees who choose to participate, the Company matches employee contributions at a 100 percent rate, up to 3 percent of the employee’s compensation. For employees not covered by a defined benefit plan, the Company contributes an amount equal to 1.5 percent of the employee’s compensation. Employer contributions totaled $6.3 million in 2015 , $6.9 million in 2014 and $6.3 million in 2013 . The Company’s postretirement medical plan provides certain medical benefits for retired U.S. employees. Employees hired before January 1, 2005, are eligible for these benefits upon retirement and fulfillment of other eligibility requirements as specified by the plan. The Company has both funded and unfunded noncontributory defined benefit pension plans that together cover most U.S. employees hired before January 1, 2006, certain directors and some of the employees of the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries. For U.S. plans, benefits are based on years of service and the highest 5 consecutive years’ earnings in the 10 years preceding retirement. The Company funds annually in amounts consistent with minimum funding levels and maximum tax deduction limits. The Company maintains a defined contribution plan covering employees of a Swiss subsidiary, funded by Company and employee contributions. In 2013, the Company transferred responsibility for pension coverage under Swiss law to a reputable Swiss insurance company. Plan assets are invested in an insurance contract that guarantees a federally mandated annual rate of return. The value of the plan assets is effectively the value of the insurance contract. The performance of the underlying assets held by the insurance company has no direct impact on the surrender value of the insurance contract. The insurance backed assets have no active market and are classified in the “other” assets category, level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Investment policies and strategies of the U.S. funded pension plan are based on a long-term view of economic growth and heavily weighted toward equity securities. The primary goal of the plan’s investments is to ensure that the plan’s liabilities are met over time. In developing strategic asset allocation guidelines, an emphasis is placed on the long-term characteristics of individual asset classes, and the benefits of diversification among multiple asset classes. The plan invests primarily in domestic and international equities, fixed income securities, which include treasuries, highly-rated corporate bonds and high-yield bonds and real estate. The midpoints of the ranges of strategic target allocations for plan assets are 58 percent equity securities, 31 percent fixed income securities and 11 percent real estate and alternative investments. Plan assets are held in a trust for the benefit of plan participants and are invested in various commingled funds, most of which are sponsored by the trustee. Equity securities are valued using quoted prices in active markets. The fair values for commingled equity and fixed-income funds, international equity funds, and real estate investments are measured using net asset values, which take into consideration the value of underlying fund investments, as well as the other accrued assets and liabilities of a fund, in order to determine a per share market value. Commingled fund and international equity funds are classified as level 2 because the net asset value is not directly traded on an active exchange. Certain trustee-sponsored funds allow redemptions monthly or quarterly, with 10 or 60 days advance notice, while most of the funds allow redemptions daily. Level 3 assets in the U.S. funded pension plan consist primarily of investments in real estate investment trust funds whose assets are valued at least annually by independent appraisal firms, using market, income and cost approaches. Significant unobservable quantitative inputs used in determining the fair value of each investment include cash flow assumptions, capitalization rates and discount rates. These inputs are subject to change based on changes in economic and market conditions and/or changes in use or timing of exit. Changes in cash flows, discount rates and terminal capitalization rates will result in increases or decreases in the fair values of these investments. It is not possible for us to predict the effect of future economic or market conditions on the estimated fair values of plan assets.

In setting the return assumption, the Company recognizes that historical returns are not always indicative of future returns and also considers the long-term nature of its pension obligations. The Company’s U.S. retirement medical plan limits the annual cost increase that will be paid by the Company to 3 percent . In measuring the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (APBO), the annual trend rate for health care costs was assumed to be 7.1 percent for 2016 , decreasing each year to a constant rate of 4.5 percent for 2038 and thereafter, subject to the plan’s annual increase limitation. At December 25, 2015 , a one percent change in assumed health care cost trend rates would not have a significant impact on the service and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement health care benefit cost or the APBO for health care benefits. The Company expects to contribute $2.1 million to its unfunded pension plans and $1.3 million to the postretirement medical plan in 2016 . The Company will not be required to make contributions to the funded pension plan under minimum funding requirements for 2016 . Estimated future benefit payments are as follows (in thousands): Pension Benefits Postretirement Medical Benefits 2016 $ 17,576 $ 1,282 2017 15,825 1,395 2018 17,185 1,466 2019 17,713 1,559 2020 19,302 1,662 Years 2021 - 2025 110,344 8,777 |

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Divestiture | Divestiture In April 2012, the Company purchased the finishing businesses of Illinois Tool Works Inc. The acquisition included finishing equipment operations, technologies and brands of the Powder Finishing and Liquid Finishing businesses. Results of the Powder Finishing businesses have been included in the Industrial segment since the date of acquisition. Under terms of a hold separate order from the Federal Trade Commission, the Company did not have the power to direct the activities of the Liquid Finishing businesses that most significantly impacted the economic performance of those businesses. Consequently, we reflected our investment in the Liquid Finishing businesses as a cost-method investment on our balance sheet, and their results of operations were not consolidated with those of the Company. In April 2015, the Company sold the Liquid Finishing business assets for a price of $610 million cash. Held separate investment income includes the pre-tax gain on sale of $150 million , net of transaction and other related expenses, including a $7 million contribution to the Company’s charitable foundation. Held separate investment income also includes dividends of $42 million . Net earnings include after-tax gain and dividends totaling $141 million . Dividends received from after-tax earnings of Liquid Finishing included in investment income totaled $28 million in 2014 and $28 million in 2013. No further Liquid Finishing dividends will be received. |

Summary of Significant Accoun23
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 25, 2015 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Fiscal Year | The fiscal year of Graco Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) is 52 or 53 weeks, ending on the last Friday in December. The years ended December 25, 2015 , December 26, 2014 and December 27, 2013 , were 52-week years. |
Basis of Statement Presentation | The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions. As of December 25, 2015 , all subsidiaries are 100 percent owned. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with 2015 presentation, but had no effect on previously reported net earnings or shareholders’ equity. As more fully described in Note M (Divestiture), in 2015, the Company sold the Liquid Finishing business assets acquired in 2012 that were held as a cost-method investment. Investment income in the Company’s consolidated statements of earnings includes the pre-tax gain on the sale, net of transaction and other related expenses, along with dividend income received prior to the sale from after-tax earnings of Liquid Finishing. |
Foreign Currency Translation | The functional currency of certain subsidiaries is the local currency. Accordingly, adjustments resulting from the translation of those subsidiaries’ financial statements into U.S. dollars are charged or credited to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for all other foreign subsidiaries. Accordingly, gains and losses from the translation of foreign currency balances and transactions of those subsidiaries are included in other expense (income), net. |
Accounting Estimates | The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Fair Value Measurements | The three levels of inputs in the fair value measurement hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 – based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets Level 2 – based on significant observable inputs Level 3 – based on significant unobservable inputs Contracts insuring the lives of certain employees who are eligible to participate in certain non-qualified pension and deferred compensation plans are held in trust. Cash surrender value of the contracts is based on performance measurement funds that shadow the deferral investment allocations made by participants in certain deferred compensation plans. The deferred compensation liability balances are valued based on amounts allocated by participants to the underlying performance measurement funds. The Company’s policy and accounting for forward exchange contracts are described below, in Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Contingent consideration liability represents the estimated value (using a probability-weighted expected return approach) of future payments to be made to previous owners of an acquired business based on its future revenues (see Note L, Acquisitions). Disclosures related to other fair value measurements are included below in Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, in Note F (Debt) and in Note J (Retirement Benefits). |
Cash Equivalents | All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. |
Inventory Valuation | Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost method is used for valuing most U.S. inventories. Inventories of foreign subsidiaries are valued using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost method. |
Property, Plant and Equipment | For financial reporting purposes, plant and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives, primarily by using the straight-line method |
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | Goodwill has been assigned to reporting units. |
Capitalized Software | Capitalized software is amortized over its estimated useful life (generally 2 to 5 years ) beginning at date of implementation. |
Impairment or Long-Lived Assets | The Company evaluates long-lived assets (including property and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangible assets not subject to amortization are also reviewed for impairment annually in the fourth quarter. There were no write-downs of long-lived assets in the periods presented. |
Self-Insurance | The Company is self-insured for certain losses and costs relating to product liability, workers’ compensation, employee medical benefit claims and representations and warranties associated with the Liquid Finishing business divestiture. The Company has stop-loss coverage in order to limit its exposure to significant claims. Accrued self-insurance retentions are based on claims filed, estimates of claims incurred but not reported, and other actuarial assumptions. |
Product Warranties | A liability is established for estimated future warranty and service claims that relate to current and prior period sales. The Company estimates warranty costs based on historical claim experience and other factors including evaluating specific product warranty issues. |
Revenue Recognition | Sales are recognized when revenue is realized or realizable and has been earned. The Company’s policy is to recognize revenue when risk and title passes to the customer. This is generally on the date of shipment, however certain sales have terms requiring recognition when received by the customer. In cases where there are specific customer acceptance provisions, revenue is recognized at the later of customer acceptance or shipment (subject to shipping terms). Payment terms are established based on the type of product, distributor capabilities and competitive market conditions. Rights of return are typically contractually limited, amounts are estimable, and the Company records provisions for anticipated returns and warranty claims at the time revenue is recognized. Historically, sales returns have been less than 3 percent of sales. Provisions for sales returns are recorded as a reduction of net sales, and provisions for warranty claims are recorded in selling, marketing and distribution expenses. From time to time, the Company may promote the sale of new products by agreeing to accept returns of superseded products. In such cases, provisions for estimated returns are recorded as a reduction of net sales. Trade promotions are offered to distributors and end users through various programs, generally with terms of one year or less. Such promotions include cooperative advertising arrangements, rebates based on annual purchases and sales growth, coupons and reimbursement for competitive products. Payment of incentives may take the form of cash, trade credit, promotional merchandise or free product. Under cooperative advertising arrangements, the Company reimburses the distributor for a portion of its advertising costs related to the Company’s products; estimated costs are accrued at the time of sale and classified as selling, marketing and distribution expense. Rebates are accrued based on the program rates and progress toward the estimated annual sales amount and sales growth, and are recorded as a reduction of sales (cash, trade credit) or cost of products sold (free goods). The estimated costs related to coupon programs are accrued at the time of sale and classified as selling, marketing and distribution expense or cost of products sold, depending on the type of incentive offered. |
Shipping and Handling | Shipping and handling costs incurred for the delivery of goods to customers are included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are included in net sales. |
Earnings Per Common Share | Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net earnings per share is computed after giving effect to the exercise of all dilutive outstanding option grants. |
Comprehensive Income | Comprehensive income is a measure of all changes in shareholders’ equity except those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners, and includes such items as net earnings, certain foreign currency translation items, changes in the value of qualifying hedges and pension liability adjustments. |
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | The Company accounts for all derivatives, including those embedded in other contracts, as either assets or liabilities and measures those financial instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on their intended use and designation. As part of its risk management program, the Company may periodically use forward exchange contracts to manage known market exposures. Terms of derivative instruments are structured to match the terms of the risk being managed and are generally held to maturity. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. All other contracts that contain provisions meeting the definition of a derivative also meet the requirements of, and have been designated as, normal purchases or sales. The Company’s policy is to not enter into contracts with terms that cannot be designated as normal purchases or sales. The Company periodically evaluates its monetary asset and liability positions denominated in foreign currencies. The Company enters into forward contracts or options, or borrows in various currencies, in order to hedge its net monetary positions. These instruments are recorded at fair value and the gains and losses are included in other expense, net. The notional amounts of contracts outstanding as of December 25, 2015 , totaled $24 million . The Company believes it uses strong financial counterparties in these transactions and that the resulting credit risk under these hedging strategies is not significant. The Company uses significant other observable inputs (level 2 in the fair value hierarchy) to value the derivative instruments used to hedge net monetary positions, including reference to market prices and financial models that incorporate relevant market assumptions. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a final standard on revenue from contracts with customers. The new standard sets forth a single comprehensive model for recognizing and reporting revenue. The new standard is effective for the Company in its fiscal year 2018 and permits the use of either a retrospective or a cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, and has not yet selected a transition method. Effective for 2015, the Company adopted ASU 2015-04, which allows for the measurement of defined benefit retirement obligations and related plan assets as of the calendar month-end that is closest to the plan sponsor’s fiscal year-end. For 2015, the Company measured all plan obligations and assets as of December 31, 2015. Effective at the end of 2015, the Company adopted ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes , which requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities to be classified as non-current. Balances as of December 26, 2014 were restated to conform with 2015 classification, resulting in decreases in previously reported 2014 current assets and liabilities of $20 million and $2 million , respectively, with corresponding increases in non-current deferred tax assets and liabilities. |
