The half-cylinder portion is formed in a state where the brazing material is present on at least one of the inner peripheral surface side and the outer peripheral surface side of each of the half-cylindrical portions, and an axially intermediate portion of each of the half-cylindrical portions. By crushing the plate in the length direction of the plate,
A half of a partition wall is formed to partition a part of each of the half cylindrical portions in the axial direction, and a portion in which each of the through holes is formed is pushed in a length direction of the plate material, with an intermediate portion of each of the through holes as a boundary. By folding back to crush, a part of each half cylinder part is partitioned in the axial direction,
A flow control wall half having a cutout at the center of each end is formed, and then the bent continuous portion is plastically deformed, so that the ends of the pair of half-cylinder portions and the partition wall half are formed. A method for manufacturing a header for a heat exchanger having a partition wall and a flow control wall, wherein the end portions and the ends of the flow control wall halves are butted against each other and then heated to braze the respective butted portions.
