Steel code for rubber goods additional strength

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a steel cord for reinforcing a rubber product, useful as a reinforcing material for rubber products such as vehicle tires, industrial belts, or the like with extreme flatness and excellent fatigue resistance. PSOLUTION: The steel cord of 3+7 structure has three core wires 2a-2c are arranged mutually approximately in parallel and approximately linearly in one direction in a cord cross section. Side wires 4a, 4d and 4g positioned at both end sides in a longitudinal direction in a cord cross section of a core wire group 3 have gaps between them and the core wires 2a and 2c at both end sides of the core wire group 3, side wires 4b, 4c, 4e and 4f positioned off from both end sides of the core wire group 3 are contacted with any one of the core wires 2a-2c and a side wire filling factor defined by a product of the wire diameter and the number of the side wires to length L of a closed curve obtained by sequentially connecting the centers of the adjacent side wires 4a-4g in the circumferential direction by straight lines is 70-90% to provide the steel cord with flatness and excellent fatigue resistance.
