There are provided an aluminum-alloy clad sheet and a clad sheet subjected to heating equivalent to brazing, which each have a high strength and an excellent erosion resistance and thus allow a reduction in thickness of a clad sheet subjected to heating equivalent to brazing such as an aluminum alloy radiator tube, and/or of a clad sheet such as an aluminum-alloy brazing sheet. An aluminum-alloy clad sheet or a clad sheet subjected to heating equivalent to brazing includes at least a core aluminum alloy sheet and an aluminum-alloy sacrificial anti-corrosive material cladded with each other, and is to be formed into a heat exchanger by brazing. The core aluminum alloy sheet includes a specified 3000 series composition. Furthermore, the strength and the erosion resistance of the core aluminum alloy sheet are improved through control of grain size distribution of precipitates having a size in a specified level in the core aluminum alloy sheet, or control of the average number density and the composition of dispersed particles therein.
