Abstract
A compact metal cable having two layers (C1, C2) of construction 1+N, rubberized in situ, usable in particular as a reinforcing element for a tire belt for a heavy industrial vehicle, comprising a core or inner layer (C1) comprising a single core wire of diameter d1, and a saturated outer layer (C2) of N wires of diameter d2 wound together in a helix at a pitch p2 around the layer C1. The layered cable has the following characteristics (d1, d2, p2 in mm): 0.15<d1<0.50; 0.15<d2<0.50; 8<p2<25. The core wire is surrounded by a sheath of diene rubber which fills, at least in part, the gaps between the core wire and the cords of the layer C2.
