Pneumatic tire and method of manufacturing rubber component therefor

摘要

A method of manufacturing a rubber component for a pneumatic tire which comprises a process of overlap-winding at least one rubber tape into a target cross sectional shape for the rubber component, wherein each rubber tape has a thickness of from 0.3 to 3.0 mm and a width of from 5 to 40 mm, and an inner surface and/or an outer surface of the rubber component are defined by a surface layer made of windings of the rubber tape which windings are overlapped by a width WJ less than 75% of the rubber tape width but more than 1.0 mm.
