Abstract:
PURPOSE: A reinforcing steel cord for rubber products such as steel belted radial tires or conveyor belts having improved rubber penetration and ageing adhesive force to rubber material by improving the mechanism of a twisted core to minimize the continuous contact of the core and external wires and forming sufficient interspaces between the core and the external wires is provided, which is most preferably used as a reinforcing material for steel belted radial tires. CONSTITUTION: In the steel cord, the pitch of the twisted core is set to allow the core to be twisted 0.2 to 2 times within the pitch of the cord, thus preferably forming sufficient interspaces between the core and the external wires in addition to the interspaces between the external wires. Since the rubber material is completely filled in the steel cord due to such interspaces, the steel cord is remarkably improved in buckling fatigue resistance, rubber penetration, air permeability, rubber adhesive force, ageing adhesive force relative to rubber, protection of brass coated surfaces of wires, and workability during a process of producing rubber products.

Disclosed is a tire-reinforcing steel cord for a radial tire. The tire-reinforcing steel cord has a double layer structure including a first-layer core (1) and a second-layer core (2) provided on the surface of the first-layer core (1). The first-layer core (1) has an elliptical or rectangular cross section. The tire-reinforcing steel cord can improve processability, fatigue characteristics, and rolling resistance performance of a tire, resulting in improved fuel efficiency. A radial tire using the tire-reinforcing steel cord is also disclosed.

A resin-coated high-tension flat steel wire includes a high-tension flat steel wire and a fiber-reinforced polyamide resin coated layer. A shape of the high-tension flat steel wire when viewed from a section perpendicular to a longitudinal direction thereof is a rectangular shape including curved portions at four comers thereof. When, among four straight lines that form the rectangular section, the ranges from both end points of the straight lines that form long sides to one fourth of the length of the straight lines are respectively defined as one-fourth segments, a shape of the fiber-reinforced polyamide resin coated layer in the rectangular section includes a mountain shape having an apex within each of the one-fourth segments, and includes a minimum point, where the thickness of the fiber-reinforced polyamide resin coated layer is the minimum, between the apex and both the ends within each of the one-fourth segments.
