Abstract
A tube end member to be provided at an end of a flange tube includes a tubular part configured to be fitted to an end of a tube body of the flange tube, a flat part formed by bending an end of the tubular part outwards at a substantially right angle, in an opposite side to a fitting side of the tubular part to be fitted to the tube body, an extending part formed by bending an outer end of the flat part at a substantially right angle towards the tubular part, a tapered part extending at an angle from an edge of the extending part so as to approach the tubular part, and a folded-back part folded back from an edge of the tapered part into a space S enclosed by the tubular part, the flat part and the extending part. The folded-back part abuts on the tapered part.
