Circumference is the distance around a circle (closed curve) which in this case would be the flange's circumference. A circumference is calculated by using the mathematical constant of Pi (3.143). It entails multiplying the outside diameter by 3.143.
Example: Diameter = 145mm
145 multiplied by 3.143 equals 455.735mm
