Pneumatic tire

摘要

A pneumatic tire comprises a breaker disposed radially outside the carcass crown and a band disposed radially outside the breaker and made of one or more cords laid at an angle of not more than 5 degrees with respect to the tire circumferential direction; the band cords are an organic fiber cord which has a single-twist structure, a cord thickness D of from 500 to 3200 dtex, a twist coefficient T of from 150 to 750 which is defined by the product of the square root of the cord thickness D and the twist number N (turn) per 10 cm length of the cord, and an elongation of from 4.0 to 8.0 % under a tension of 2.7 g/ dtex; the band cord count per 1 cm width of the band is in a range of from 5 to 25; and when the tire is not inflated and loaded with no tire load, a tensile force Ls of a band cord in the tire is in a range of from 4 to 25 N, and the total of the tensile forces LS of the band cords per 1 cm width of the band is in a range of from 50 to 250 N.
