Disclosure Text Block [Abstract] | |
Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block] | 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the financial records of Olympic Steel, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, Olympic or the Company), without audit and reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state the results of the interim periods covered by this report. Year-to-date results are not necessarily indicative of 2015 annual results and these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Commencing with the first quarter of 2015, the flat products segment has been separated into two reportable segments; carbon flat products and specialty metals flat products. Prior year financial information has been recast to reflect the new segment reporting structure. The Company now operates in three reportable segments; carbon flat products, specialty metals flat products, and tubular and pipe products. Through its carbon flat products segment, the Company sells and distributes large volumes of processed carbon and coated flat-rolled sheet, coil and plate products, and fabricated parts. Through its specialty metals flat products segment, the Company sells and distributes processed aluminum and stainless flat-rolled sheet and coil products, flat bar products and fabricated parts. Through its tubular and pipe products segment, the Company distributes metal tubing, pipe, bar, valve and fittings and fabricates pressure parts supplied to various industrial markets. Corporate expenses are reported as a separate line item for segment reporting purposes. Corporate expenses include the unallocated expenses related to managing the entire Company (i.e., all three segments), including payroll expenses for certain personnel, expenses related to being a publicly traded entity such as board of directors expenses, audit expenses, and various other professional fees. |

Receivables [Abstract] | |
Financing Receivables [Text Block] | 2. Accounts Receivable : Accounts receivable are presented net of allowances for doubtful accounts and unissued credits of $3.0 million and $2.9 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained at a level considered appropriate based on historical experience and specific customer collection issues that have been identified. Estimations are based upon a calculated percentage of accounts receivable, which remains fairly level from year to year, and judgments about the probable effects of economic conditions on certain customers, which can fluctuate significantly from year to year. The Company cannot guarantee that the rate of future credit losses will be similar to past experience. The Company considers all available information when assessing the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts and unissued credits each quarter. |

Inventory Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Inventory Disclosure [Text Block] | 3. Inventories Inventories consisted of the following: Inventory as of (in thousands) June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 Unprocessed $ 186,522 $ 238,226 Processed and finished 56,938 72,882 Totals $ 243,460 $ 311,108 The Company values certain of its tubular and pipe products inventory under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, approximately $45.2 million, or 18.6% of consolidated inventory, and $46.6 million, or 15.0% of consolidated inventory, respectively, was reported under the LIFO method of accounting. The cost of the remainder of the tubular and pipe products inventory is determined using a weighted average rolling first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded $650 thousand of LIFO income as a result of expected year-over-year decreases in carbon, nickel and base stainless steel pricing and expected lower inventory quantities at December 31, 2015. Of the $650 thousand LIFO income, $400 thousand was recorded in the second quarter of 2015. The LIFO income increased the Company’s inventory balance and decreased its cost of materials sold. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded $400 thousand of LIFO expense as projections at that time anticipated increased pricing of inventory for the remainder of 2014. If the FIFO method had been in use, inventories would have been $3.9 million and $3.2 million lower than reported at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. |

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Text Block] | 4. Goodwill and Intangible Assets : In accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), an impairment test of goodwill and indefinitely lived intangible assets is performed at least annually or more frequently if changes in circumstances or the occurrence of events indicate potential impairment. Events or changes in circumstances that could trigger an impairment review include significant nonperformance relative to the expected historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of the use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business or significant negative industry or economic trends. During the first six months of 2015, the metals industry has experienced a significant decline in the price of metals as a result of the strengthened U.S. dollar, a historically high level of imported materials arriving in the United States, low raw materials costs to produce metals, and an oversupply of metals. The price of hot-rolled carbon steel has decreased approximately 22%, or $130 per ton, since December 31, 2014. As a result, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred in the Company’s tubular and pipe products segment during the second quarter of 2015. The challenging market conditions have negatively impacted the segment’s recent financial performance and the decrease of the Company’s market capitalization led the Company to perform the two-step quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of the tubular and pipe products segment with its carrying value. The Company engaged an independent third party valuation expert to assist with the completion of the goodwill and indefinitely lived intangible asset impairment testing. The asset impairment testing determined that the carrying value of the operations was in excess of the fair value and indefinitely lived intangible asset and goodwill impairments were identified. The Company concluded that the indefinitely lived intangible asset, Trade name, was partially impaired and the impairment in the amount of $8 million was recorded in the second quarter of 2015. The determination of fair value of the reporting units used to perform the first step of the impairment test requires judgment and involves significant estimates and assumptions about the expected future cash flows and the impact of market conditions on those assumptions. Due to the inherent uncertainty associated with these estimates, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Although management believes the assumptions used in testing the Company’s reporting units’ indefinitely lived intangible assets and goodwill for impairment are reasonable, it is possible that market and economic conditions could deteriorate further or not improve as expected. Additional declines in or a lack of recovery in market conditions from current levels, weaker than anticipated Company financial performance, or an increase in the market-based weighted average cost of capital, among other factors, could significantly impact the impairment analysis and may result in further indefinitely lived intangible assets impairment charges that, if incurred, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Based on the second step of the impairment test, the Company concluded that the implied fair value of goodwill for the tubular and pipe products segment was less than its carrying value and a full goodwill impairment of $16.5 million was recorded at June 30, 2015. Goodwill, by reportable segment, was as follows as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014: (in thousands) Flat Products Tubular and Pipe Products Total Balance as of December 31, 2014 $ 500 $ 16,451 $ 16,951 Acquisitions - - - Impairments - (16,451 ) (16,451 ) Balance as of June 30, 2015 $ 500 $ - $ 500 Intangible assets, net, consisted of the following as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014: As of June 30, 2015 (in thousands) Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Impairments Intangible Assets, Net Customer relationships - subject to amortization $ 13,332 $ (3,555 ) $ - $ 9,777 Trade name - not subject to amortization 23,425 - (8,000 ) 15,425 $ 36,757 $ (3,555 ) $ (8,000 ) $ 25,202 As of December 31, 2014 (in thousands) Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Impairments Intangible Assets, Net Customer relationships - subject to amortization $ 13,332 $ (3,111 ) $ - $ 10,221 Trade name - not subject to amortization 23,425 - - 23,425 $ 36,757 $ (3,111 ) $ - $ 33,646 Due to the impairment of the tubular and pipe segment’s goodwill, a triggering event occurred for the intangible assets subject to amortization and an impairment test was completed. The test revealed no impairment to the Company’s intangible assets subject to amortization. The Company estimates that amortization expense for its intangible assets subject to amortization will be $889 thousand for the year ending December 31, 2015 and $889 thousand per year in each of the next five years. |

Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Debt Disclosure [Text Block] | 5. Debt : The Company’s debt is comprised of the following components: As of June 30, December 31, (in thousands) 2015 2014 Asset-based revolving credit facility due June 30, 2019 $ 209,395 $ 244,090 Industrial revenue bond due April 1, 2018 2,690 3,530 Total debt 212,085 247,620 Less current amount (2,690 ) (3,530 ) Total long-term debt $ 209,395 $ 244,090 On June 30, 2014, the Company amended its existing asset-based credit facility (ABL Credit Facility). The ABL Credit Facility amendment provides for, among other things: (i) a reduction in the applicable margin for loans under the Company’s Loan and Security Agreement; (ii) a consolidation of the previous $315.0 million revolver and then outstanding $44.5 million term loan into a $365 million revolving credit facility; (iii) the removal of the Company’s real estate as collateral for borrowings; and (iv) the extension of the maturity date until June 30, 2019. Revolver borrowings are limited to the lesser of a borrowing base, comprised of eligible receivables and inventories, or $365 million in the aggregate. The ABL Credit Facility requires the Company to comply with various covenants, the most significant of which include: (i) until maturity of the ABL Credit Facility, if any commitments or obligations are outstanding and the Company’s availability is less than the greater of $30 million or 10.0% of the aggregate amount of revolver commitments ($36.5 million at June 30, 2015) then the Company must maintain a ratio of EBITDA minus certain capital expenditures and cash taxes paid to fixed charges of at least 1.00 to 1.00 for the most recent twelve fiscal month period; (ii) limitations on dividend payments; and (iii) restrictions on additional indebtedness. The Company has the option to borrow under its revolver based on the agent’s base rate plus a premium ranging from 0.00% to 0.25% or the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus a premium ranging from 1.25% to 3.00%. As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with its covenants and had approximately $93.1 million of availability under the ABL Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2015, $3.1 million of bank financing fees were included in “Prepaid expenses and other” and “Other long-term assets” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The financing fees are being amortized over the five-year term of the ABL Credit facility and are included in “Interest and other expense on debt” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. In June 2012, the Company entered into a forward starting fixed rate interest rate hedge that commenced June 2013, in order to eliminate the variability of cash interest payments on $53.2 million of the then outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility. The hedge matures on June 1, 2016 and the notional amount is reduced monthly by $729 thousand. The hedged balance as of June 30, 2015 was $35.7 million. The interest rate hedge fixed the rate at 1.21% plus a premium ranging from 1.75% to 2.25%. Although the Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to the interest rate hedge agreement, the Company anticipates performance by the counterparties. As part of the Chicago Tube and Iron (CTI) acquisition in July 2011, the Company assumed approximately $5.9 million of Industrial Revenue Bond (IRB) indebtedness issued through the Stanly County, North Carolina Industrial Revenue and Pollution Control Authority. The bond matures in April 2018, with the option to provide principal payments annually on April 1st. On April 1, 2015, the Company paid an optional principal payment of $840 thousand. Since the IRB is remarketed annually, it is included in “Current portion of long-term debt” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest is payable monthly, with a variable rate that resets weekly. As a security for payment of the bonds, the Company obtained a direct pay letter of credit issued by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The letter of credit reduces annually by the principal reduction amount. The interest rate at June 30, 2015 was 0.17% for the IRB debt. CTI entered into an interest rate swap agreement to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on the above IRB. At June 30, 2015, the effect of the swap agreement on the bond was to fix the rate at 3.46%. The swap agreement matures in April 2018, and is reduced annually by the amount of the optional principal payments on the bond. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to the interest rate swap agreement. However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | 6. Derivative Instruments : Metals swaps During 2015 and 2014, the Company entered into nickel swaps indexed to the London Metal Exchange (LME) price of nickel with third-party brokers. In 2014, the Company entered into carbon swaps indexed to the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) price of U.S. Midwest Domestic Hot-Rolled Coil Steel with third-party brokers. The nickel and carbon swaps are treated as derivatives for accounting purposes and are included in “Other accrued liabilities” and “Prepaid expenses and other” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2015. The Company entered into them to mitigate its customers’ risk of volatility in the price of metals. The outstanding nickel swaps have one to eleven months remaining and the outstanding carbon swaps have one to six months remaining. The swaps are settled with the brokers at maturity. The economic benefit or loss arising from the changes in fair value of the swaps is contractually passed through to the customer. The primary risk associated with the metals swaps is the ability of customers or third-party brokers to honor their agreements with the Company related to derivative instruments. If the customer or third-party brokers are unable to honor their agreements, the Company’s risk of loss is the fair value of the metals swaps. While these derivatives are intended to help the Company manage risk, they have not been designated as hedging instruments. The periodic changes in fair value of the metals and embedded customer derivative instruments are included in “Cost of materials sold” in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The Company recognizes derivative positions with both the customer and the third party for the derivatives and classifies cash settlement amounts associated with them as part of “Cost of materials sold” in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The cumulative change in fair value of the metals swaps that have not yet been settled are included in “Other accrued liabilities”, and the embedded customer derivatives are included in “Accounts receivable, net” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. In 2014, the Company entered into carbon swaps to mitigate its risk of volatility in the price of metals. The swaps are indexed to the NYMEX price of U.S. Midwest Domestic Hot-Rolled Coil Steel with third-party brokers. The outstanding carbon swaps have one to six months remaining. The metals swaps are accounted for as cash flow hedges and are included in “Other accrued liabilities” and “Prepaid expenses and other” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2015. The periodic change in fair value of the metals hedges are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2015. The impact of the mark-to-market adjustment on settled hedges is recorded in “Cost of materials sold” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The impact was $823 thousand of expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. Interest rate swap CTI entered into an interest rate swap to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its IRB. The swap agreement matures in April 2018, the same time as the IRB, and is reduced annually by the amount of the optional principal payments on the IRB. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to the interest rate swap agreement. However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The interest rate swap is not treated as a hedge for accounting purposes. The periodic changes in fair value of the interest rate swap and cash settlement amounts associated with the interest rate swap are included in “Interest and other expense on debt” in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Fixed rate interest rate hedge In June 2012, the Company entered into a forward starting fixed rate interest rate hedge commencing July 2013 in order to eliminate the variability of cash interest payments on $53.2 million of the outstanding LIBOR-based borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility. The hedged balance as of June 30, 2015 was $35.7 million. The hedge matures on June 1, 2016 and the notional amount is reduced monthly by $729 thousand. The interest rate hedge fixed the rate at 1.21% plus a premium ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%. Although the Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to the interest rate hedge agreement, the Company anticipates performance by the counterparties. The fixed rate interest rate hedge is accounted for as a cash flow hedging instrument for accounting purposes. There was no net impact from the nickel swaps or embedded customer derivative agreements to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The table below shows the total impact to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income through net income of the derivatives for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments : The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, short-term trade receivables, derivative instruments, accounts payable and debt instruments. For short-term instruments, other than those required to be reported at fair value on a recurring basis and for which additional disclosures are included below, management concluded the historical carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is an exit price concept that assumes an orderly transaction between willing market participants. Valuation techniques must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. To measure fair value, the Company applies a fair value hierarchy that is based on three levels of input, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 During the six months ended June 30, 2015, there were no transfers of financial assets between Levels 1, 2 or 3 fair value measurements. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at June 30, 2015 since December 31, 2014. Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014: Metals swaps and embedded customer derivatives Interest rate swaps The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company: Value of Items Recorded at Fair Value As of June 30, 2015 (in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Metals swaps $ - $ 1,020 $ - $ 1,020 Total assets at fair value $ - $ 1,020 $ - $ 1,020 Liabilities: Embedded customer derivative $ - $ 1,020 $ - $ 1,020 Interest rate swap (CTI) - 144 - 144 Fixed interest rate swap (ABL) - 279 - 279 Total liabilities recorded at fair value $ - $ 1,443 $ - $ 1,443 Value of Items Recorded at Fair Value As of December 31, 2014 (in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Embedded customer derivative $ - $ 487 $ - $ 487 Total assets at fair value $ - $ 487 $ - $ 487 Liabilities: Metals swaps $ - $ 487 $ - $ 487 Interest rate swap (CTI) - 178 - 178 Fixed interest rate swap (ABL) - 386 - 386 Total liabilities recorded at fair value $ - $ 1,051 $ - $ 1,051 The fair value of the IRB is determined using Level 1 inputs. The carrying value and the fair value of the IRB that qualify as financial instruments were $2.7 million and $3.5 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The fair value of the revolver is determined using Level 2 inputs. The carrying value of the revolver was $209.4 million at June 30, 2015. The carrying value of the revolver was $244.1 million at December 31, 2014. The Level 2 fair value of the Company's long-term debt was estimated using prevailing market interest rates on debt with similar credit worthiness, terms and maturities. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that were not measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company: Value of Items Not Recorded at Fair Value As of June 30, 2015 (in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Liabilities: IRB $ 2,690 $ - $ - $ 2,690 Revolver - 209,395 - 209,395 Total liabilities not recorded at fair value $ 2,690 $ 209,395 $ - $ 212,085 The value of the items not recorded at fair value represent the carrying value of the liabilities.

Equity Plans : Stock Options The following table summarizes stock option activity during the six months ended June 30, 2015: Weighted Average Aggregate Intrinsic Number of Weighted Average Remaining Value Options Exercise Price Contractual Term (in thousands) Outstanding at December 31, 2014 20,170 $ 32.63 Granted - - Exercised - - Canceled (1,000 ) 32.63 Outstanding at June 30, 2015 19,170 $ 32.63 1.83 $ - Exercisable at June 30, 2015 19,170 $ 32.63 1.83 $ - During the six months ended June 30, 2015 no options were exercised. All options outstanding are vested as of June 30, 2015. There were 7,000 options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $103 thousand. Restricted Stock Units and Performance Share Units Pursuant to the Olympic Steel 2007 Omnibus Incentive Plan (Plan), the Company may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, performance shares, and other stock- and cash-based awards to employees and Directors of, and consultants to, the Company and its affiliates. Under the Plan, 500,000 shares of common stock are available for equity grants. On March 1, 2015 and March 1, 2014, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved the grant of 4,639 and 2,544 restricted stock units (RSUs), respectively, to each non-employee Director. Subject to the terms of the Plan and the RSU agreement, the RSUs vest after one year of service (from the date of grant). The RSUs are not converted into shares of common stock until the director either resigns or is terminated from the Board of Directors. The fair value of each RSU was estimated to be the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant, which was $15.09 and $27.51 for the grants on March 1, 2015 and March 1, 2014, respectively. The Company’s Senior Management Compensation Program includes an equity component in order to encourage more ownership of common stock by the senior management. The Senior Management Compensation Program imposes stock ownership requirements upon the participants. Each participant is required to own at least 750 shares of common stock for each year that the participant participates in the Senior Management Compensation Program. Any participant that fails to meet the stock ownership requirements will be ineligible to receive any equity awards under the Company’s equity compensation plans, including the Plan, until the participant satisfies the ownership requirements. To assist participants in meeting the stock ownership requirements, on an annual basis, if a participant purchases 500 shares of common stock on the open market, the Company will award that participant 250 shares of common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 the Company matched 7,750 shares and 7,250 shares, respectively. Additionally, any participant who continues to comply with the stock ownership requirements as of the five-year, 10-year, 15-year, 20-year and 25-year anniversaries of the participant’s participation in the Senior Management Compensation Program will receive a restricted stock unit award with a dollar value of $25 thousand, $50 thousand, $75 thousand, $100 thousand and $100 thousand, respectively. Restricted stock unit awards will convert into the right to receive shares of common stock upon a participant’s retirement, or earlier upon the participant’s death or disability or upon a change in control of the Company. Stock-based compensation expense recognized on RSUs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, is summarized in the following table: For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, (in thousands, except per share data) 2015 2014 2015 2014 RSU expense before taxes $ 311 $ 268 $ 542 $ 521 RSU expense after taxes $ 191 $ 176 $ 317 $ 333 Impact per basic share $ 0.02 $ 0.02 $ 0.03 $ 0.03 Impact per diluted share $ 0.02 $ 0.02 $ 0.03 $ 0.03 All pre-tax charges related to RSUs were included in the caption “Administrative and general” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | 9. Income Taxes : For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $3.6 million, or 14.0%, compared to income tax expense of $1.8 million, or 34.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2014. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded a $16.5 million goodwill impairment charge pertaining to its tubular and pipe products segment. This non-deductible impairment charge reduced the Company’s effective tax rate by 24.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2015. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $3.0 million, or 12.2% compared to an income tax provision of $3.5 million, or 36.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The lower effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was a result of the non-deductible goodwill impairment charge discussed above. This impairment charge reduced the Company’s effective tax rate by 26.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Our tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter we update our estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if our estimated tax rate changes, we make a cumulative adjustment. Our quarterly tax provision and our quarterly estimate of our annual effective tax rate is subject to significant volatility due to several factors, including variability in accurately predicting our pre-tax and taxable income and loss and the mix of jurisdictions to which they relate, changes in law and relative changes of expenses or losses for which tax benefits are not recognized. Additionally, our effective tax rate can be more or less volatile based on the amount of pre-tax income. For example, the impact of discrete items and non-deductible expenses on our effective tax rate is greater when our pre-tax income is lower. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] | 11. Segment Information : The Company follows the accounting guidance that requires the utilization of a “management approach” to define and report the financial results of operating segments. The management approach defines operating segments along the lines used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (CODM) to assess performance and make operating and resource allocation decisions. Our CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources based primarily on operating income (loss). Our operating segments are based primarily on internal management reporting. Commencing with the first quarter of 2015, the flat products segment has been separated into two reportable segments; carbon flat products and specialty metals flat products. The flat products segments’ assets and resources are shared by the carbon and specialty metals segments and both segments’ products are stored in the shared facilities and processed on the shared equipment. As such, total assets and capital expenditures are reported in the aggregate for the flat products segments. Due to the shared assets and resources, certain of the flat products segment expenses are allocated between the carbon flat products segment and the specialty metals flat products segment based upon an established allocation methodology. Prior year financial information has been recast to reflect the new segment reporting structure. The Company now operates in three reportable segments; carbon flat products, specialty metals flat products, and tubular and pipe products. Through its carbon flat products segment, the Company sells and distributes large volumes of processed carbon and coated flat-rolled sheet, coil and plate products and fabricated parts. Through its specialty metals flat products segment, the Company sells and distributes processed aluminum and stainless flat-rolled sheet and coil products, flat bar products and fabricated parts. Through its tubular and pipe products segment, the Company distributes metal tubing, pipe, bar, valve and fittings and fabricates pressure parts supplied to various industrial markets. Corporate expenses are reported as a separate line item for segment reporting purposes. Corporate expenses include the unallocated expenses related to managing the entire Company (i.e., all three segments), including payroll expenses for certain personnel, expenses related to being a publicly traded entity such as board of directors expenses, audit expenses, and various other professional fees. The following table provides financial information by segment and reconciles the Company’s operating income by segment to the consolidated income before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, (in thousands) 2015 2014 2015 2014 Net sales Carbon flat products $ 209,207 $ 263,209 $ 437,752 $ 502,924 Specialty metals flat products 52,715 56,996 105,346 103,134 Tubular and pipe products 53,329 65,842 118,018 126,902 Total net sales $ 315,251 $ 386,047 $ 661,116 $ 732,960 Depreciation and amortization Carbon flat products $ 3,147 $ 4,023 $ 6,308 $ 8,047 Specialty metals flat products 190 207 350 402 Tubular and pipe products 1,488 1,432 2,953 2,866 Corporate 25 25 51 50 Total depreciation and amortization $ 4,850 $ 5,687 $ 9,662 $ 11,365 Operating income (loss) Carbon flat products $ (602 ) $ 5,513 $ (251 ) $ 8,919 Specialty metals flat products (270 ) 902 440 2,344 Tubular and pipe products 2,504 2,853 6,758 6,290 Corporate expenses (1,579 ) (2,160 ) (3,549 ) (4,216 ) Goodwill and intangible asset impairment (a) (24,451 ) - (24,451 ) - Total operating income (loss) $ (24,398 ) $ 7,108 $ (21,053 ) $ 13,337 Other income (loss), net (26 ) (4 ) (58 ) (2 ) Income (loss) before interest and income taxes (24,424 ) 7,104 (21,111 ) 13,335 Interest and other expense on debt 1,471 1,779 3,033 3,532 Income (loss) before income taxes $ (25,895 ) $ 5,325 $ (24,144 ) $ 9,803 (a) The goodwill and intangible asset impairments relate to the Company's tubular and pipe products segment.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] | |
New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block] | 12. Recently Issued Accounting Updates : In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, “Interest – Imputation of Interest.” This ASU is part of the FASB’s Simplification Initiative and has been issued to reduce the complexity in the presentation of debt issuance costs. This new guidance requires companies to present debt issuance costs the same way they currently present debt discounts, as a direct deduction from the carrying value of that debt liability. The guidance is limited to simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs and does not impact the recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs. This ASU is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The amendments of ASU No. 2015-03 must be applied retrospectively, where the balance sheet of each presented individual period is adjusted to indicate the period-specific impact of using the new guidance. The FASB considered that because both debt issuance costs and debt discounts are amortized using the effective interest method, there would be no effect on the income statement upon adoption of the amendments. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting guidance on disclosure of uncertainties about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. This guidance requires management to assess the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide disclosures under certain circumstances. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This ASU is a joint project initiated by the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial Reporting Standards that will: remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements; provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets; provide more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements; and simplify the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. As originally proposed, the guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. On April 1, 2015, the FASB approved issuing an exposure draft on a one-year deferral of the effective date of the new revenue standard for both public and private companies. The Company is in the process of determining the method of adoption and assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. |

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the financial records of Olympic Steel, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, Olympic or the Company), without audit and reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state the results of the interim periods covered by this report. Year-to-date results are not necessarily indicative of 2015 annual results and these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
