An extrusion die for manufacturing a tube with a plurality of small hollow
portions arranged in a width direction of the tube, includes a female die
for defining an outer periphery of the tube and a mandrel combined with
the female die. The mandrel includes a body portion and a comb-shaped
portion protruded from the body portion, the combe-shaped portion
including a plurality of columnar portions desposed in a width direction
of the comb-shaped portion at certain intervals. An outer periphery of a
tip end portion of each of the plurality of columnar portion constitutes
a bearing portion for defining an inner periphery of each of the
plurality of small hollow portions of the tube. Each of the plurality of
columnar portions has outside surfaces opposed in a thickness direction
of the comb-shaped portion, and at least one of the outside surfaces has
an inwardly dented portion behind the bearing portion, the inwardly
dented portion constituting an extrusion material filling space. The at
least one of the outside surfaces extending from a basal end portion of
each of the plurality of columnar portions to the inwardly dented portion
is formed into an inclined or curved surface for leading extrusion
material to the inwardly dented portion. The at least one of the outside
surfaces extending from the dented portion to the bearing portion is
formed into an inwardly curved surface.
