A composite material made of a high-strength aluminum alloy. The composite material is particularly used for the production of brazed heat exchangers for vehicles. The composite material includes a core layer, a corrosion protective layer covering the top surface of this core layer and a brazing material layer applied to the corrosion protective layer, all with specifically selected alloying constituents.
