A heat exchanger core for use in a fluid cooling apparatus comprises two tanks 12, 13, each provided with a tube plate 17, and a number of parallel tubes 15 through which the fluid to be cooled flows and around which a cooling fluid is passed. The tubes 15 extend between the two tube plates 17. A connecting strip 20 in the form of a strengthening comb connects the tank wall 12 and the tube plate 17. The strip 20 is provided with a tube plate location slot 18 and a recess 19 adapted to house the end of the tank wall 12. The connecting strip 20 has a number of fingers 40 which extend between the tubes 15 and are bonded to the tube plate 17, but not to the tubes 15 themselves. The fingers 40 add strength without the need to use a thicker tube plate (17)
