Polyplas
The skeleton that carries the load.

Reinforcing Materials

Textile cord and steel wire from the world's principal producers, holding the shape and the load of every tyre built in India.

Cord and wire decide what a tyre can carry, how true it runs, and how it holds its shape at speed and temperature.

The skeleton that carries the load.

Cords, wires and fabrics decide a tyre's strength, dimensional stability and load capacity. Polyplas supplies textile and metallic reinforcement from world-leading cord producers, Junma nylon-6, Kordsa polyester and nylon-6,6, to tyre plants across India.

Polyplas supplies tyre reinforcement materials in India: nylon-6 and nylon-6,6 tyre cord fabric, polyester (PET) tyre cord for passenger radials, brass-coated steel cord for belt packages, bronze-coated bead wire, and hose wire. Principals include Junma (China) for nylon-6 cord and Kordsa Global (Turkey) for polyester and nylon-6,6.

A tyre is built outward from the bead.

Bead wire anchors it to the rim. The carcass ply carries the load. Steel belts hold the tread flat against the road, and the cap ply keeps everything where it was put at two hundred kilometres an hour.

Nylon Tyre Cord Fabric & Yarn

Grades & standards
Polyamide 6 (Nylon 6) · Polyamide 6,6 (Nylon 6,6)
Key applications
Carcass ply, truck, bus, two-wheeler, OTR · cap ply in passenger radials

Nylon cord is the workhorse textile of India's tyre industry. High strength-to-weight, excellent fatigue resistance, dependable adhesion to rubber.

Polyplas supplies greige and dipped fabric in Nylon 6 and Nylon 6,6 from internationally certified producers, with Junma of China among its principals.

Why Polyplas

Cord and wire arrive to the exact construction a carcass line was built around, from mills that set the industry standard. Polyplas holds the stock in India and matches the specification, so a building machine never waits on a container.

Polyester Tyre Cord Fabric & Yarn
