Abstract

An aluminum alloy brazing sheet includes a core material containing Si, Cu and Mn by a predetermined amount, the balance being Al and inevitable impurities, a sacrificial anode material disposed on one face side of the core material and containing Si, Zn and Mg by a predetermined amount, the balance being Al and inevitable impurities, and a brazing filler material disposed on the other face side of the core material and formed of an aluminum alloy, and the area fraction of Zn—Mg-based intermetallic compounds with 2.0 μm or above particle size on the surface of the sacrificial anode material may be 1.0% or below. Or otherwise, in the aluminum alloy brazing sheet, the number density of Al—Cu-based intermetallic compounds with 0.5 μm or above particle size inside the core material may be 1.0 piece/μm2 or below.
