ABSTRACT:
A junction (16) includes a gasket (18) between a tank (12) and header (14) of a heat exchanger (10). The gasket has a substantially flat bottom surface (40), a convex upper section (42), and a lip (46) at its inner periphery (44) that extends upwardly. A concave recess (52) is interposed between the convex section and lip. The lip is positioned to fill a crevice (56) formed between the tank and header when the heat exchanger is assembled.
