Re: mass for a flange

Blimey...really?
Calculate the mass of a solid disc the same diameter and thickness as the flange (call it 'D').
Then for each hole in the flange, calculate the mass of the steel removed to make the hole (h1, h2, h3 etc) and subract it from 'D'

Thus mass of the flange= D-(h1+h2+h3.....)

Weighing those holes can be tricky
