Tire Including A Knitted Fabric

Abstract

A tire that comprises a knit (44) comprising: columns (C1, C2, C3, C4) of loops (B), the loops (B) of one and the same column (C1, C2, C3, C4) being arranged one after the other substantially in an overall direction (X1) referred to as the main direction; and rows (R1, R2, R3, R4) of loops, the loops (B) of one and the same row (R1, R2, R3, R4) being arranged one beside the other substantially in an overall direction (Z1) referred to as the transverse direction. The knit (44) has, in the main overall direction (X1) and/or the transverse overall direction (Z1), a force at 100% elongation greater than or equal to 250 N, the force at 100% elongation being determined from a force-elongation curve obtained by applying standard ISO 13934-1:2013 to the knit (44) embedded in a standard elastomer matrix.
