<p>A non-pneumatic insert tube for a tyre (2) comprising an elongate tube (1) having a thin wall (8) defining a continuous bore (7) which extends throughout the entire tube length, and a sequence of spaced partial cuts (9) through the thin wall (8) of the tube (1). The sequence of partial cuts (9) are disposed about the outer periphery of the tube (1) when it is formed into a single coil hoop for insertion into a tyre (2) and the uncut portion of the tube (1) is located on the inner periphery. Preferably, a relatively thin reinforcing web (11) which can be arched or flat is disposed within the bore (7) of the tube (1) and integrally attached to the interior sidewalls (9) of the tube (1) to subdivide the tube bore into two sections (7a, 7b). The reinforcing web (11) may also assume a more complex shape having two or more intersecting cross legs attached to the interior of the thin wall.</p> |
