A band layer in which a band cord is wound around in a spiral manner along a circumferential direction of the tire is provided. The band cord (10) comprises total nine metallic wires (F) including at least five shaped wires (FA), and is formed by twining two to four wire bundles composed of a plurality of said metallic wires twined wile twisting each wire thereof. Each shaped wire is formed in a two-dimensional shape with repeated peaks and troughs in a condition prior to the twisting. The metallic wires of each wire bundle are revolved around the center of the wire bundle while rotating on its own axis through the twining. <IMAGE> |
