Summary:An core unit for a heat exchanger being bent about an axis perpendicular to the core unit's headers. Tubes establish fluid communication between the core unit's headers, and a bend relief spacer is disposed between first and second groups of tubes. During the bending process, the bend relief spacer facilitates the bend and ultimately maintains the performance of the core unit.
