The invention relates to a paper guide rope, braided from a plurality of textile subunits, wherein each subunit contains a plurality of twisted yarns made from multifilament yarn. The rope according to the invention is characterized in that the titre of at least part of the twisted yarns, preferably of all the twisted yarns, is in each case at most 5000 dtex, and that the twist rate of at least part of the twisted yarns, preferably of all the twisted yarns, is in each case at least 150 T/m.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a tire-reinforcing steel cord for a radial tire. The tire-reinforcing steel cord has a double layer structure including a first-layer core and a second-layer core provided on the surface of the first-layer core. The first-layer core has an elliptical or rectangular cross section. The tire-reinforcing steel cord can improve processability, fatigue characteristics, and rolling resistance performance of a tire, resulting in improved fuel efficiency. A radial tire using the tire-reinforcing steel cord is also disclosed.

Abstract:
Stranded composite cables include a single wire defining a center longitudinal axis, a first multiplicity of composite wires helically stranded around the single wire in a first lay direction at a first lay angle defined relative to the center longitudinal axis and having a first lay length, and a second multiplicity of composite wires helically stranded around the first multiplicity of composite wires in the first lay direction at a second lay angle defined relative to the center longitudinal axis and having a second lay length, the relative difference between the first lay angle and the second lay angle being no greater than about 4°. The stranded composite cables may be used as intermediate articles that are later incorporated into final articles, such as overhead electrical power transmission cables including a multiplicity of ductile wires stranded around the composite wires. Methods of making and using the stranded composite cables are also described.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a tire having a radial carcass reinforcement, consisting of at least one layer of metal reinforcing elements, said tire including a top reinforcement, which is covered radially with a tread, said tread being joined to two beads via two sidewalls. According to the invention, the reinforcing elements of at least one carcass reinforcement layer are metal cables which, in the so-called permeability test, have a flow rate less than 20 cm3/mn and at least 10% of said metal cables are banded by a strand consisting of multifilament textile fibers.
Abstract:
Method of manufacturing a metal cord with three concentric layers (C1, C2, C3), of the type rubberized in situ, i.e. during its manufacture comprising a first, internal, layer or core (C1), around which there are wound together in a helix, at a pitch p2, in a second, intermediate, layer (C2), N wires of diameter d2, N varying from 3 to 12, around which second layer there are wound together as a helix at a pitch p3, in a third, outer, layer (C3), P wires of diameter d3, P varying from 8 to 20, the said method comprising the following steps: a sheathing step in which the core (C1) is sheathed with a rubber composition named “filling rubber”, in the uncrosslinked state; an assembling step by twisting the N wires of the second layer (C2) around the core (C1) thus sheathed in order to form, at a point named the “assembling point”, an intermediate cord named a “core strand” (C1+C2); an assembling step in which the P wires of the third layer (C3) are twisted around the core strand (C1+C2); a final twist-balancing step.
