A tube for a heat exchanger consists of a folded metal strip having an outer face covered rod with a plating of brazing alloy (31) and including at least one folded border (28) having a sheared edge bearing on an inner face (34) of the metal strip. The metal strip is folded by passing through a series of successive rollers. The sheared edge is covered with a layer of brazing alloy (31) which has advantageously been pushed back by the rollers from the outer surface towards the sheared edge. According to the method, the metal strip is made to pass between a series of rollers, each roller including a surface which exhibits an inclination with respect to the rotational axis of the rollers, the inclinations of the successive rollers continually increasing.
