A plurality of angle portions 2c of the fins on an upstream side and those
on a downstream side of an air flow are provided so as to be
substantially symmetrical with each other. Due to this, bending forces
are continuously exerted on a thin plate-like fin material in a direction
where the bending deformation of the fin material is cancelled, during
the fin forming process. Accordingly, when the angle portions 2c are
formed it can be prevented in advance that the fin material 11 is
deformed in a state where the repeated deformations of the fin material
11 are accumulated in the same direction.
