Reinforcing cord and rubber product using the same

摘要

A reinforcing cord of the present invention is a reinforcing cord (10) for rubber reinforcement including a fiber core (11) and a plurality of strands (12) disposed around the fiber core (11). The fiber core (11) is formed of one or a plurality of highly elastic fibers having a tensile elastic modulus of at least 100 GPa. Each of the plurality of strands (12) is formed of a plurality of glass fibers that are primarily twisted, and the plurality of strands (12) are finally twisted to be disposed around the fiber core (11). The direction of the final twist of the plurality of strands is opposite to the direction of the primary twist in each of the plurality of strands (12). The number of final twists of the plurality of strands (12) is 1.0 to 3.0 times/25 mm, and a ratio of the number of primary twists in each of the plurality of strands (12) to the number of final twists of the plurality of strands (12) (the number of primary twists/the number of final twists) is in a range of 1.5 to 2.5.
