The clamp assembly comprises a clamp device (120) that acts on the second part (1102), an elongated bar (130) that is connected to the clamp device (120) and extends through the first part (1101), and a tightening nut (140) that is attached to the elongated bar (130) and acts on the first part (1101) for pressing the first and second parts (1101, 1102) towards each other. A heat exchanger comprising a shell (1102), a first cover (1101), a second cover (1109) and a number of clamp assemblies (100) arranged such that each elongated bar (130) extends through one of a plurality of holes (1106) or recesses through a protruding portion (1105) of at least one of the first and second covers (1101, 1109).
