Abstract
A heat exchanger has a tank for accommodating a heat medium therein and a tube connected to the tank through a core plate. Specifically, an end portion of the tube is inserted into a connection hole of the core plate and is mechanically joined thereto. A joined portion of the tube and the core plate is covered with adhesive through a wettability improving film for improving wettability of the adhesive to the joined portion. As a result, a sealing property between the tube and the core plate is easily and stably improved by the adhesive.
