A radiator assembly for a cooling system on an internal combustion engine includes a radiator core having a plurality of tube-flow passages for transferring heat from fluid coolant to ambient atmosphere and at least one tank in fluid communication between an internal combustion engine and the radiator core. The radiator core includes a header flange extending about at least a portion of a perimeter of the radiator core and the tank includes a clamping flange extending about at least a portion of a perimeter of the tank corresponding to and in adjacent relationship with the header flange of the radiator core. The radiator assembly also includes an improved fastening mechanism for fixedly securing the tank to the radiator core so as to prevent leakage from the radiator assembly between the tank and the radiator core by applying a pair of clamping forces acting on both the header flange on the radiator core and the clamping flange on the tank orthogonal to the flanges and in opposite directions relative to each other.
