The invention relates to an air seal (11) for an automotive heat exchanger which heat exchanger has a core (30) and a sideplate (40) mounted on the core (30) and having a first and a second longitudinal side edges (40a, 40b), which air seal (11) has an elongate shape and comprises a profiled base (12) for connecting with the side plate (40). The profiled base (12) comprises a longitudinal flat middle section (13), a first and a second longitudinal edges (14a, 14b) bent towards the sideplate (40) during mounting and forming a longitudinal hook (15a) on the first edge (14a) and a longitudinal lock (15b) on the second longitudinal edge (14b). Said lock (15b) of the second longitudinal edge (14b) comprises a longitudinal blocking lip (18b) located at a distance from the end wall (17b) of the lock (15b) and protruding from the inner side of a middle wall (16b) to such a distance that, between said blocking lip (18b), said middle wall (16b) and said end wall (17b), there is defined a cavity for receiving and blocking said second longitudinal edge (40b) of the sideplate (40) of the heat exchanger when mounting the air seal (11) on the sideplate (40).
