<p>The tube (10) comprises a body (12) bounded by a tubular wall and extended by at least one end (14) which is capable of being introduced into a hole (26) of a manifold plate (24), with the interposition of a compressible sealing gasket (32), the end (14) of the tube being converted, for example by folding the wall back, in order to have a wall thickness (e') which is larger than the wall thickness (e) of the body of the tube, which makes it possible to increase the mechanical strength of the end (14) in order to ensure, without deforming, compression of the gasket. Application in particular to heat exchangers for motor vehicles. <IMAGE></p> |
