Abstract (en)

[origin: ES8603065A1] The tubes (2) of the heat exchanger are mounted in a header plate (1) which is attached to a header tank (5). The edge of the header plate is pressed to a U-section which receives a sealing strip (4). The U-section is pressed over the edge (5a) of the header tank wall and is secured by hooks (7). - The hooks are made from a U-section with notches (12) cut in the upper flange to form a series of tabs (9). The U-section is pressed sideways of the edge (1a) of the header plate, and lugs (11) projecting from its lower flange are bent upwards by a tool (20) to make a permanent joint.
