STRIP-SHAPED STEEL CORD

摘要

Provided is a steel cord with both shape stability and durability. In the steel cord (1), five steel core wires (2), which are disposed parallel to each other in a plane, have been bundled as a unit using an adhesive (3) with a thickness (Ad) of less than 15 µm. The core wires (2) configuring the steel cord (1) have a diameter (d) of less than 0.45 mm and the interval (Gd) between the core wires (2) is less than 20 µm. A core wire, for which the free coil diameter (D) of the core wire (2) is at least 750 times the wire diameter (d) of the core wire (2), is used for said core wires (2).
