    Abstract: A tyre includes a carcass structure including at least one carcass ply, a belt structure applied in a radially outer position with respect to the carcass structure, and a tread band applied in a radially outer position with respect to the belt structure. The belt structure includes two main belt layers and first and second reinforcing strips incorporating a plurality of reinforcing elements arranged substantially in the circumferential direction. The reinforcing elements include at least one high-elongation metal cord including a plurality of intertwined strands, and each strand includes a plurality of filaments. Each filament has a diameter not greater than 0.175 mm.

    Abstract: Process for manufacturing a tyre, includes the following steps: (a) winding at least one metal wire so as to form a plurality of coils, the coils being radially superimposed and axially arranged side-by-side with respect to one another, so as to obtain a bead core; (b) applying at least one layer of a crosslinkable elastomeric material to the bead core obtained in step (a), so as to obtain a coated bead core; (c) partially crosslinking the at least one layer of crosslinkable elastomeric material, so as to obtain an amount of free sulfur of 30% by weight to 70% by weight, preferably of 40% by weight to 65% by weight, more preferably of 50% by weight to 60% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the sulfur present in the crosslinkable elastomeric material; and (d) applying a bead filler to the radial outer surface of the bead core obtained in step (c), so as to obtain a bead structure for a green tyre.
