An apparatus for sticking a tire component member (a cord cloth with rubber) having cords inserted therein at a predetermined bias angle and having its opposite ends cut respectively in parallel to the cords into a fixed length onto a forming drum upon manufacturing a rubber tire. This apparatus comprises a belt conveyor containing attracting means therein for receiving the cut tire component member and conveying it to the forming drum, widthwise positioning means for correcting a position in the widthwise direction of the tire component member on the belt conveyor by holding the tire component member from its both lateral sides, and front end and rear end reshaping means adapted to butt against cut edge surfaces at the front end and the rear end of the tire component member for correcting the shapes of these cut edges. Since positioning and front and rear end reshaping of the tire component member are effected on the belt conveyor, when the tire component member has been sticked onto the forming drum, the front end and the rear end of the tire component member can be aligned at a high precision, and so, the quality of the finished tire can be improved. The sticking step for the tire component member can be perfectly automated and a production efficiency can be raised.
