<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pneumatic tire capable of exhibiting durability performance more than that of the case that steel cords formed of carbon steel with a carbon content exceeding 0.75 wt.% even if steel cords formed of carbon steel with a carbon content smaller than 0.75 wt.% and with superior productivity are applied. <P>SOLUTION: There is provided a pneumatic tire having reinforcement layers with a plurality of steel cords 10 being buried in rubber while being regularly arranged therein where each of the steel cords 10 is formed of a plurality of twisted wires 11, its wire diameter (d) is 0.15 to 0.40 mm, each of the twisted wires 11 is formed of a core segment 11a and a plating layer 11b formed around the core segment 11a, the core segment 11a is formed of carbon steel of which the carbon content is 0.60 to 0.75 wt.%, and on the other hand, an average thickness (t) of the plating layer 11b is in a range of 0.23 to 0.33 μm and the strength of each of the steel cords 10 is in a range of 3,000 to 3,500 MPa. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
