Abstract
A cast or injection molded tire having a reinforcing sheet of netting material providing openings for striking through of elastomeric material during filling of the mold. The process of making the tire includes shaping the sheet of netting material by stretching and thereby orienting the strands. The shaping is done at elevated temperatures and then the netting material cooled in the shaped form. A mat of overlapping sheets of netting material may be used with the strands being multidirectional to provide uniform sidewall strength. An overlapping breaker ply of netting material may also be used to connect two mats of reinforcing sheets on opposite sides of the tire.
