Abstract
A heavy duty high speed radial tire has a belt composed of at least one aromatic polyamide fiber cord ply, the product T.multidot..sqroot.D of the cable twist number T (turns/10 cm) of the belt cord and the square root of the total denier number D (deniers) of the cord is 2.466.times.10.sup.3 to 3.036.times.10.sup.3, and the elongation E (%) at breakage of the belt cord divided by the total denier number D is 7.78.times.10.sup.-4 to 12.22.times.10.sup.-4.
Claims5
A heavy duty high speed radial tire comprising:
- a pair of bead portions, each with a bead core disposed therein,
- a carcass turned up around said bead cores and composed of at least one ply of carcass cords laid at angles in a range from 75 degrees to 90 degrees with respect to the tire equator;
- and
- an aromatic polyamide fiber cord belt structure disposed radially outside the carcass and inside a rubber tread, said belt structure comprising
- a breaker disposed radially outside the carcass and composed of at least one ply of the aromatic polyamide fiber belt cords laid at angles of from 10 to 30 degrees to the tire equator, and
- a band disposed radially outside the breaker and composed of a plurality of plies of at least one aromatic polyamide fiber belt cord wound spirally and continuously from one edge to the other edge thereof to be laid at an angle of from 0 to 5 degrees to the tire equator,
- the product T.sqroot.D of the cable twist number T (turns/10 cm) of the belt cord and the square root of the total denier number D (deniers) of the belt cord, being in a range from 2.466.times.10.sup.3 to 3.036.times.10.sup.3,
- the elongation E (%) at breakage of the belt cord divided by the total denier number D of the belt cord, being in a range from 7.78.times.10.sup.-4 to 12.22.times.10.sup.-4,
- said carcass cords being aromatic polyamide fiber cords,
- the product T.sqroot.D of the cable twist number T (turns/10 cm) of the carcass cord and the square root of the total denier number D (deniers) of the carcass cord, being in a range from 2.466.times.10.sup.3 to 3.036.times.10.sup.3, and
- the elongation E (%) at breakage of the carcass cord divided by the total denier number D of the carcass cord, being in a range from 7.78.times.10.sup.-4 to 12.22.times.10.sup.-4.
