Abstract: The present invention is directed to a rubber ply for a tire, the rubber ply comprising pairs of textile cords arranged in parallel in a plane, wherein each cord of the pairs of textile cords comprises two cord plies. The distance between two adjacent pairs of textile cords (dp) is at least 5 times larger than the distance between two parallel textile cords (di) within a pair of textile cords, and wherein the two cord plies in one or more of the textile cords are twisted together in a range from 8 TPI to 12 TPI and have each a density ranging from 500 dtex to 2000 dtex. The present invention is also directed to a tire comprising such a rubber ply which is particularly applicable and beneficial for utilization in motorcycle tires.

Abstract: This invention relates to a passenger car tire comprising a carcass having at least one carcass ply, a tread disposed radially outward of a crown region of the carcass, a belt with a plurality of belt plies arranged between the carcass and the tread, and an overlay structure covering the belt and comprising a helically wound overlay ply strip reinforced by at least one textile cord. The cord comprises from 6 to 10 polyamide monofilament plies having each a density from 300 to 470 dtex, wherein the monofilament plies are twisted together by between 1 and 2 twists per inch to form the cord.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a asymmetric cap ply reinforcement cord comprising yarns having yarns with two different linear density values in range of 1300-1500 dtex and 850-100 dtex in the cap ply reinforcement layer that is located between the tread and the belt package in a pneumatic radial vehicle tire comprising a tread and a belt package, and that is formed by winding spirally as strip comprising at least two cords such that it will make 0 to 5° angle with the equatorial plane on the said belt package.

Abstract: A dipped and heat-set high modulus nylon 6.6 cords having a tensile stress value between 1.2 and 2.0 cN/dtex at 4% elongation. The high modulus nylon 6.6 cords are used as reinforcement in shaped rubber composites. The minimum heat shrinkage of the cords is 4% and the maximum heat shrinkage thereof is 7%.

Abstract: A two or three-ply nylon 6.6 cord having a breaking elongation of 8 to 12% and a minimum tenacity of 9 g/dtex is disclosed in the present invention. The two or three-ply nylon 6.6 cord is used as tire reinforcement, in particular as cap ply spirally wound on belt package with 0° to 5° to the equatorial plane of the radial pneumatic tire.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cap ply reinforcement hybrid yarn (1) which is located between the tread and the belt package especially in radial passenger vehicle tires, which improves the high speed durability of the tire by using polyamide (N)/polyester (P) yarns, and which provides fuel saving by decreasing the rolling resistance.

Abstract: Pneumatic radial tire (1) having improved high speed durability and low flatspot feature, and which has polyethylene terephthalate cap ply reinforcement layer (6). The objective is to provide a pneumatic radial tire (1) wherein the pressure on the belt package (5) is increased at high speed and high temperature by increasing the thermal shrinkage force of the cap ply cord.
