Abstract:
A header box (3′) includes a header (10) and a cover (11) having a longitudinal extent dimension and at least one flange (8′) crimped in-between the header (10) and the cover (11). The header (10) has a ductility different from that of the flange (8′). At the flange (8′), a longitudinal portion (18) of the header (10) and/or of the flange (8′) is rolled in such a way that the flange (8′) is trapped between the header (10) and the cover (11). Additionally, a heat exchanger includes such a box.
