Abstract

PURPOSE:To manufacture a header inexpensively by reducing the number of parts for constructing the header and by dispensing with a welding process for a manufacturing process. CONSTITUTION:The opposite end parts of a tubular blank 11 are reduced to be shaped in semispheres so that the opposite-end openings of the blank 11 be closed. The blank 11 of which the opposite ends are closed is cut in two longitudinally and thereby a header 16 which has two walls 15 closed at the opposite ends and has a semicircular cross section is obtained.
