Abstract: A bulky continuous filament yarn, in which continuous filament core yarns of polymeric material are substantially straight and free from loops and comprise from about 65 to about 93 percent of the total filaments by weight while the remainder of the total filaments are continuous filament effect yarns having a denier per filament of up to 5.0 that are inserted between the filaments of the core yarn and protrude from the surface of the core yarn in a mixture of crunodal and arch-like loops, is made by feeding a larger denier yarn at low overfeed and a much smaller denier yarn at low to moderate overfeed through a jet supplied with ambient air.

Abstract: A reinforcing fabric comprising a web of tire cords maintained in spaced relationship with sheath-core weft yarns having a cotton sheath about a core of spin-oriented polyester filaments. The weft yarns have a high initial modulus and a high break elongation which is substantially retained after heat aging the yarn at 450.degree. or 475.degree. F. The fabric is particularly useful as reinforcement in radial tire constructions.
