Abstract:
Multistrand metal cable of 4 x (4+M) construction, which can especially be used for reinforcing tyre belts for industrial vehicles, formed from four elementary strands assembled in a helix with a helix pitch (P3), each elementary strand consisting of a two-layer cable of 4+M construction comprising an inner layer (C1) formed from four wires of diameter (D1), assembled in a helix with a pitch (P1), and an unsaturated outer layer (C2) of M wires, M being greater than or equal to 8 and smaller than or equal to 11, of diameter (D2), these being assembled in a helix with a pitch (P2) around the inner layer (C1), (P1) being smaller than (P2), the four wires of the inner layer (C1) being wound in a helix in the same twist direction as the M wires of the outer layer (C2), and wherein each of the diameters (D1) and (D2) is greater than or equal to 0.10 mm but less than or equal to 0.50 mm.
Abstract:
A two-layer cord having a number of wires in the outer layer, enclosing, but not completely, a cord core formed by a plurality of core wires, and in which the core wires are not preformed, while at least some of the outer wires are preformed.

Abstract:
A metal cord usable for the reinforcement of rubber articles is comprised of a helically formed single wire filament having a twisting angle of 75-84.5° or a bundle of two twisted metal filaments each having a twisting angle of 75-84.5°. Such metal cords are preferably used as a rubber reinforcement in a pneumatic tire.
Abstract:
A steel cord for reinforcement of rubber products composed of two material wires of a diameter of 0.25 to 0.40 mm and a carbon content of 0.75 to 0.88 wt % which are entwisted at a twist pitch of 9.0 to 16.0 mm and in open structure, with improved fatigue resistance, flexibility and corrosion resistance.
