Steel Tire Cord - PT Bekaert Indonesia

Steel tire cord is a high-tensile stranded steel product specifically engineered for use as reinforcement in tires. It is composed of multiple high-carbon steel wires twisted into cords of precise constructions, diameters, and tensile properties, according to Bekaert internal specifications and international standards for tire reinforcement materials. Typical product constructions include combinations of wire count, diameter, and lay (e.g., “2 + 2 × 0.30 mm, 16/16 mm lay”), allowing for optimized mechanical performance in the tire structure. The cords are coated with a brass alloy to enhance adhesion with rubber compounds, ensuring durable bonding within tire belts and carcass layers.
