Abstract: The tire (10) comprises a crown (12) surmounted by a tread (22), two sidewalls (24), two beads (26), each sidewall (24) connecting each bead (26) to the crown (12), a carcass reinforcement (34) anchored in each of the beads (26) and extending in the sidewalls (24) as far as the crown (12). The carcass reinforcement (34) comprises one carcass ply (44) comprising carcass reinforcing elements (46) having a mean laying pitch (P) strictly greater than 1.5 mm. The carcass ply (44) comprises an elastomer matrix (54) in which the carcass reinforcing elements (46) are embedded, each carcass reinforcing element (46) comprising: one filamentary element (56), and one sheath (58) coating the filamentary element (56) and comprising at least one layer (60) of a thermoplastic polymer composition.

Abstract: A tire having a radial carcass reinforcement having at least one layer of metal reinforcing elements. The tire includes a crown reinforcement, itself radially capped by a tread. The tread is connected to two beads by two sidewalls. The reinforcing elements of at least one layer of the carcass reinforcement have at least one filamentary element and at least one sheath covering the at least one filamentary element. The at least one sheath includes at least one layer of a thermoplastic polymer composition. The thickness of rubber compound between the internal surface of the tire cavity and the point of a metal reinforcing element of the carcass reinforcement that is closest to the internal surface of the cavity is less than or equal to 3.8 mm.
