Abstract
A pneumatic tire has a tread, a carcass with belt plies disposed below the tread, and a cap ply layer between the tread and the belt plies of the carcass. The cap ply is a weft inserted warp knit fabric tape comprising an in-lay warp yarn set, a weft inserted yarn set, and a stitching yarn set, wherein the stitching yarn set forms a repeating stitch pattern on each warp yarn comprising a sequence of at least 2 stitches around the warp yarn from one stitching yarn and at least 2 stitches around the warp yarn from the adjacent stitching yarn. The tape is wound in a flat helically wound around the belt plies and covered with a tread of the tire.
