  • Patent number: 6475636
    Abstract: A steel cord particularly adapted for reinforcement of a protection ply in a tire has under compression in rubber a deformation Wk at instability of at least 3% and is stress-relieved so that its total elongation at rupture in rubber exceeds 3.5%. The steel cord comprises pearlite filaments.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 28, 2000
    Date of Patent: November 5, 2002
    Assignee: N.V. Bekaert S.A.
    Inventors: Urbain D'Haene, Marc Eggermont, Yvan Lippens, Dirk Meersschaut
  • Publication number: 20020150786
    Abstract: A steel cord (10) particularly adapted for reinforcement of a protection ply in a tire has under compression in rubber a deformation Wk at instability of at least 3% and is stress-relieved so that its total elongation at rupture in rubber exceeds 3.5%. The steel cord (10) comprises steel filaments (12) having a pearlitic structure.

  • Patent number: 5843583
    Abstract: A steel cord adapted for the reinforcement of an elastomer comprises steel filaments of a pearlitic structure. The steel cord has a plastic and elastic elongation at break of x % and a plastic and elastic elongation capability in the vulcanized elastomer of y %, the values x and y fulfilling following equation:y-0.50.ltoreq.x.ltoreq.y+0.50,which means that the total elongation at break does not fall down considerably after embedding the steel cord into an elastomer.
