A generally cylindrical heat exchanger of the tube bundle type includes end tube plates, carrying the tubes, which are made of a rubber type material. The rubber tube plates include sets of circular lips located near the edges. The tube plate sits in a recess in the end of the body of the heat exchanger, and the end section abuts against periphery of the tube plate. The end section is attached to the end of the body of the heat exchanger by a separate internally threaded sleeve, which engages a thread on the end of the body. On assembly, the peripheral lips are compressed between one face of the recess and the end section.
