Definitions
- the present invention relates to steel cables ("steel cords"), intended in particular for reinforcing articles made of plastic and / or rubber, in particular tire casings. It relates more particularly to cables intended for reinforcing the carcass reinforcement of such tire casings.
- the invention relates more specifically to hybrid steel cables, i.e. comprising steel wires of different natures, these cables having a higher endurance than that of conventional steel cables for tires.
- patent application EP-A-648,891 proposed steel cables improved in endurance and resistant to corrosion. , consisting of stainless steel wires whose composition and microstructure give these stainless steel wires both the tensile strength and the torsional ductility necessary to be able to replace carbon steel wires; in particular, the microstructure of stainless steel comprises at least 20%, preferably at least 50% by volume of martensite.
- the cables made up of these stainless steel wires comprising at least 20% by volume of martensite have improved endurance due to better fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of the steel wires.
- stainless compared to that of carbon steel wire. This improved resistance significantly increases the life of the tires.
- the cables according to the abovementioned application EP-A-648 891 have, due to the composition of the steel and the process for obtaining the wires, the 'disadvantage of being expensive; this request also briefly suggests, in order to reduce costs, the use of hybrid steel cables made up only in part of stainless steel wire comprising at least 20% by volume of martensite, the rest being able to consist of steel wire carbon.
- the aim of the present invention is to overcome the above drawbacks by proposing new steel cables, the endurance of which is notably improved compared to that of conventional cables made up solely of carbon steel wires, this endurance of the cables of the invention being moreover close to that of the cables in accordance with the aforementioned application EP-A-648,891, formed from specific stainless steel wires, but obtained at a much lower cost.
- the Applicant has found during its research that, surprisingly, the use of at least one stainless steel wire in a steel cable comprising carbon steel wires, improves the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of carbon steel wires which are in contact with this stainless steel wire.
- the endurance properties of the steel cable itself are generally improved, as well as the longevity of tires reinforced with such a cable.
- the hybrid cables of the invention can comprise a majority of carbon steel wires which support the load, and only a limited number of stainless steel wires, even a single one, the role is to improve the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of carbon steel wires by simple contact.
- a first object of the invention is a hybrid steel cable comprising, in contact with one or more carbon steel wire (s), at least one stainless steel wire whose microstructure contains less than 20% by volume of martensite.
- a second object of the invention is the use in a steel cable of at least one stainless steel wire to improve by contact the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of one or more steel wire (s) at carbon, this use covering any type of stainless steel wire and not being limited in particular to a stainless steel wire whose microstructure contains less than 20% by volume of martensite.
- Another object of the invention is a method for improving in a steel cable the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of one or more carbon steel wire (s), characterized in that, during the manufacture of said wire cable, at least one stainless steel wire is incorporated into it, by addition or by substitution, so as to bring it into contact with this carbon steel wire (s).
- the invention also relates to the use of cables according to the invention for the reinforcement of plastic and / or rubber articles, for example pipes, belts, tire casings, reinforcing plies intended in particular for reinforce the top or the carcass of these envelopes.
- the invention also relates to these plastic and / or rubber articles themselves when they are reinforced by cables according to the invention, in particular the tire casings and their carcass reinforcement plies, more particularly when they are intended for industrial vehicles such as vans, heavy goods vehicles, trailers, metro, transport, handling or civil engineering machinery.
- the force at break noted Fm (in N), the breaking strength noted Rm (in MPa) and elongation after break noted A (in%) are measured in tension according to the AFNOR NF A 03-151 method. June 1978.
- the identification and quantification of the microstructure of steels is carried out by a known technique of X-ray diffraction.
- This method consists in determining the total diffracted intensity for each of the phases of the steel, in particular the martensite ⁇ ', the martensite ⁇ and the austenite ⁇ , by summing the integrated intensity of all the diffraction peaks of this phase , which makes it possible to calculate the percentages of each of the phases in relation to all of the phases of the steel.
- the X-ray diffraction spectra are determined on the section of the wire to be studied with a goniometer, using a chromium anticathode. A scan makes it possible to obtain the characteristic lines of each of the phases present. In the case of the three aforementioned phases (the two martensites and the austenite), the scanning is carried out from 50 degrees to 160 degrees.
- the angle 2 ⁇ is the total angle in degrees between the incident beam and the diffracted beam.
- crystallographic structures of the previous phases are as follows: - austenite ⁇ : cubic with centered faces;
- the various% concerning the phases of the microstructure of steel are expressed in volume and the terms "martensite” or “martensite phase” cover all of the martensite ⁇ 'and martensite ⁇ phases, the term% in martensite therefore representing the% by volume of the total of these two martensitic phases and the term “austenite” represents austenite ⁇ .
- The% by volume of the various phases determined by the above method are obtained with an accuracy, in absolute value, of approximately 5%. This means for example that below 5% by volume of martensite, it can be considered that the microstructure of the steel is practically devoid of martensite.
- the rotary fatigue test (“Hunter fatigue test”) is a known fatigue test; it has been described in patent US-A-2 435 772 and used for example in patent application EP-A-220 766 to test the fatigue-corrosion resistance of metal wires intended for the reinforcement of tire covers.
- Such a test is usually applied to a unitary wire.
- the test is carried out not on an insulated wire but on the entire cable, so as to be able to test the overall resistance of the cable to fatigue-corrosion.
- the cable is not immersed in water as recommended for example by the above-mentioned application EP-A-220 766, but exposed to the air ambient under a controlled humid atmosphere (relative humidity of 60% and temperature of 20 ° C), this condition being closer to the conditions of use of the cable in a tire casing.
- the principle of the test is as follows: a sample of the cable to be tested, of determined length, is held at each of its two ends by two parallel jaws. In one of the jaws, the cable can rotate freely while it remains fixed in the second jaw which is itself motorized.
- the flexing of the cable makes it possible to apply to it a given bending stress ⁇ whose intensity varies with the imposed radius of curvature, itself a function of the useful length of the sample (for example from 70 to 250 mm) and of the distance between the two jaws (for example from 30 to 115 mm).
- the test is carried out as follows: a first stress ⁇ is chosen and the fatigue test is launched for a maximum number of 10 5 cycles, at the rate of 3000 rotations per minute. According to the result obtained - ie rupture or non-rupture of the cable after these 10 5 cycles maximum - a new stress ⁇ (lower or higher than the previous one, respectively) is applied to a new test piece, by varying this stress ⁇ according to the so-called staircase method (Dixon &Mood; Journal of the American statistical association, 43, 1948, 109-126).
- the statistical treatment of the tests defined by this staircase method leads to the determination of an endurance limit - denoted ⁇ ⁇ - which corresponds to a probability of cable breakage of 50% at after 10 5 fatigue cycles.
- ⁇ ⁇ - an endurance limit - denoted ⁇ ⁇ - which corresponds to a probability of cable breakage of 50% at after 10 5 fatigue cycles.
- the stress ⁇ applied during this series of iterations for a cable of formula (1 x 3) consisting of 3 steel wires with a diameter of approximately 0.18 mm (such as cables Cl to C- 7 of the examples below), can vary between 200 and 1500 MPa.
- Cable rupture is understood here to mean the rupture of at least one wire constituting the cable.
- E the Young's modulus of the material (in MPa)
- ⁇ the diameter of the broken wire (in mm)
- the "belt” test is a known fatigue test which has been described for example in the application EP-A-362 570 or in the aforementioned EP-A-648 891 application, the steel cables to be tested being incorporated in a rubber article which is vulcanized.
- the rubber article is an endless belt made with a known rubber-based mixture, similar to those which are commonly used for the casings of tire casings.
- the axis of each cable is oriented in the longitudinal direction of the belt and the cables are separated from the faces of the latter by a rubber thickness of approximately 1 mm.
- the belt is arranged so as to form a cylinder of revolution, the cable forms a helical winding of the same axis as this cylinder (for example, not of the helix equal to approximately 2.5 mm).
- This belt is then subjected to the following stresses: the belt is rotated around two rollers, so that each elementary portion of each cable is subjected to a tension of 12% of the initial breaking force and undergoes cycles of variation of curvature which make it pass from an infinite radius of curvature to a radius of curvature of 40 mm and this during 50 million cycles.
- the test is carried out under a controlled atmosphere, the temperature and the humidity of the air in contact with the belt being maintained at approximately 20 ° C. and 60% relative humidity.
- the duration of the stresses for each belt is of the order of 3 weeks.
- the cables are extracted from the belts, by shelling, and the residual breaking force of the wires of the tired cables is measured.
- fine wires made of work hardened steel are used, the diameter ⁇ of which varies from 0.17 to 0.20 mm approximately, these wires being either carbon steel or stainless steel.
- the chemical composition of the starting steels is given in table 1 below, the steel referenced “T” being carbon steel, a known perlitic steel comprising 0.7% carbon (USA standard AISI 1069), the steels referenced “A”, “B” or “C” being stainless steels of different grades (USA standards AISI 316, 202 or 302).
- the values indicated for each of the elements cited are% by weight, the rest of the steels consisting of iron and usual unavoidable impurities, and the presence of a dash (-) in this table 1 indicating that the corresponding element is only present in the residual state.
- the term “stainless steel” is understood here to mean a steel comprising at least 11% chromium and at least 50% iron (% by total weight of stainless steel).
- All these wires undergo a known degreasing and / or pickling treatment before their subsequent use, the stainless steel wires being further covered, by electrolytic deposition, with a layer of nickel of approximately 0.3 ⁇ m (micrometer). .
- the wires have a breaking strength equal to approximately 675 MPa (steel A), 975 MPa (steel B), 790 MPa (steel C), and 1150 MPa (steel T); their elongation after rupture is 35 to 45% for stainless steel wires, around 10% for carbon steel.
- Copper is then deposited on each wire, followed by a zinc deposit, by electrolytic means at room temperature, and then heat is heated by Joule effect to 540 ° C. to obtain brass by diffusion of copper and zinc, the weight ratio (phase ⁇ ) / (phase ⁇ + phase ⁇ ) being equal to approximately 0.85.
- No heat treatment is carried out on the wire after obtaining the brass coating.
- a final work hardening is then carried out on each wire (ie after the last heat treatment), by cold drawing in a humid environment with a grease which is present in the form of an emulsion in water. This wet drawing is carried out in a known manner in order to obtain the final work hardening rate noted ⁇ in table 2; ⁇ is therefore calculated from the initial diameter indicated above for the starting commercial wires.
- the steel wires thus drawn have the mechanical properties indicated in Table 2, their diameter ⁇ varying from 0.171 to 0.205 mm.
- the brass coating (plus nickel if applicable) which surrounds the wires has a very small thickness, clearly less than a micrometer, for example of the order of 0.15 to 0.30 ⁇ m (of which approximately 0.05 ⁇ m of nickel if applicable), which is negligible compared to the diameter ⁇ of the steel wires.
- the wires A1 and B1 on the one hand, A2 and B2 on the other hand are devoid of martensite or contain less than 5% thereof (by volume).
- the wires C1 and C2 with a high rate of martensite (more than 60% by volume) correspond to the stainless steel wires of the abovementioned application EP-A-648,891.
- the composition of the steel of the wire in its elements for example C, Cr, Ni, Mn, Mo
- the brass coating facilitates the wire drawing, as well as the bonding of the wire with the rubber when the wire is used in a rubber article, in particular in a tire casing.
- the nickel coating allows good attachment of the brass coating to the stainless steel.
- cables either in the form of elementary strands, or in the form of layered cables.
- These cables are prepared according to methods and with twisting or wiring devices known to those skilled in the art, which are not described here for the simplicity of the description.
- known steel cables of structure or known formula noted (1 ⁇ 3) are produced by known twisting operations, each consisting of an elementary strand made up of three wires wound together in a helix (direction S) in a pitch of 10 mm, in one go, that is to say during a single twisting operation.
- the cables referenced C-2 to C-7 are therefore all hybrid steel cables containing either a single stainless steel wire (cables C-2, C-3 and C-4), or two stainless steel wires (cables C-5, C-6 and C-7).
- the construction cable C-2 [2T2 + 1 A2] is formed by 2 wires T2 in carbon steel in contact with 1 wire A2 in stainless steel (AISI 316), while the cable C-7 of construction [1T2 + 2C2] consists of 1 wire T2 in carbon steel in contact with two wires C2 in stainless steel (AISI 302).
- the hybrid cables C-2 and C-3 on the one hand, C-5 and C-6 on the other hand, are cables in accordance with the invention, the microstructure of the stainless steel of their wires comprising less than 20 % by volume of martensite.
- each stainless steel wire (A2, B2 or C2) in cables C-2 to C-7 is also in accordance with the invention, to improve the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of the steel wires by contact.
- carbon (T2) the invention indeed covering the use of any stainless steel wire, including the use of C2 wire whose microstructure contains more than 70% by volume of martensite.
- This type of layered cable is particularly intended for reinforcing an industrial tire carcass. It therefore consists of a strand made up of 19 wires in total, one wire serving as core or heart and the other 18 being wound around this core in two adjacent concentric layers.
- a particular example of such a cable structure has been described for example in the above-mentioned application EP-A-362 570.
- the core wire has a diameter of approximately 0.200 mm, which corresponds to the index wires 1.
- the two layers which surround it have the same 10 mm helix pitch and the same winding direction (Z), and are made up of a total of 18 carbon steel wires with a diameter of 0.175 mm (T2 wire).
- Each cable core therefore corresponds to a steel variant of table 1.
- These cables are referenced Cl 1 to Cl 4 and have been prepared according to the different constructions indicated between hooks in table 4.
- the cable Cl 1 of construction [1T1 + 6T2 + 12T2] is the only cable consisting exclusively of carbon steel wires and therefore constitutes the control cable for this. series.
- the cables referenced Cl 2 to Cl 4 are all hybrid steel cables comprising as core wire a stainless steel wire: for example, the cable Cl 2 of construction [1A1 + 6T2 + 12T2] is formed of 1 Al wire in stainless steel (AISI 316) in contact with six T2 carbon steel wires forming the first internal layer itself surrounded by a second external layer of 12 T2 wires.
- the hybrid cables C-l 2 and C-l 3 are cables according to the invention, the micro structure of the stainless steel of their wires comprising less than 20% by volume of martensite.
- each stainless steel wire Al, Bl or Cl in cables Cl 2 to Cl 4, to improve by contact the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of T2 steel wires to carbon of the internal layer, the invention in fact covering the use of wire C1, the micro structure of which contains more than 60% by volume of martensite.
- 2 cables with layers of known structure are used (1 + 6 + 11 ), also particularly intended for the reinforcement of an industrial tire carcass, in which a central core constituted by a single wire is surrounded and in contact with a first internal layer of six wires, itself surrounded and in contact with a second outer layer of eleven wires.
- These layered cables therefore consist of a strand made up of 18 wires in total, one wire serving as core or core and the other 17 being wound around this core in two adjacent concentric layers, the last layer being said to be unsaturated.
- the core wire has a diameter of approximately 0.200 mm, which corresponds to the index wires 1.
- the first layer which surrounds the core has a helical pitch of 5.5 mm, and the second layer (outer layer ) an 11 mm helix pitch; both layers have the same winding direction (Z) and therefore consist of a total of 17 carbon steel wires with a diameter of 0.175 mm (T2 wire).
- the cables are referenced Cl 5 and Cl 6 and have been prepared according to the different constructions indicated between brackets in table 4.
- the cable Cl 5 of construction [1T1 + 6T2 + 11T2] is the only cable made up exclusively of carbon steel wires and therefore constitutes the control cable for this series.
- the hybrid steel cable referenced Cl 6 of construction [1B1 + 6T2 + 11T2] is formed of 1 wire Bl of stainless steel (AISI 202) in contact with six wires T2 of carbon steel forming the first internal layer itself surrounded a second unsaturated outer layer of 11 wires T2.
- the mechanical properties of these cables, also shown in Table 4, are practically identical due to the very low proportion of stainless steel wire that is used (only 1 stainless wire for 18 wires in total).
- the hybrid cable C-16 is a cable according to the invention, the micro structure of the stainless steel of its core wire comprising less than 5% by volume of martensite.
- the method for improving the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of the carbon steel wires T2 of the inner layer is also in accordance with the invention, the method consisting in the manufacture of said cables to be incorporated, by substitution. carbon steel core wire, a stainless steel core wire and thus bringing the latter into contact with the 6 T2 carbon steel wires which surround the stainless steel core wire.
- the stress ⁇ ⁇ is the endurance limit corresponding to a probability of failure of 50% under the conditions of the test: it is given both in absolute units (MPa) and in relative units (u.r.).
- MPa absolute units
- u.r. relative units

- N could reach several tens of wires, for example 20 to 30 wires or even more; preferably, N varies from 2 to 5.
- the invention also relates to any strand of simple formula (i.e. containing a small number of wires) of the type (P + Q) - with P> 1; Q> 1; preferably P + Q varying from 3 to 6 - obtained by assembling at least one elementary strand (or unitary wire) with at least one other elementary strand (or unitary wire), the wires in such a strand of formula (P + Q) therefore not being wound together in a helix during a single twisting operation, unlike the so-called elementary strand (1 x N) described above; examples include strands of formula (2 + 1), (2 + 2), (2 + 3) or (2 + 4).
- the invention also relates to any multi-strand steel cable (assembly of several strands) of which at least one strand conforms to the invention, as well as the use of a stainless steel wire, in such a multi-strand cable. strands, to improve the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of carbon steel wires by contact.
- the purpose of this test is to show the increase in the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of carbon steel wires in hybrid steel cables formed of carbon steel wires and stainless steel wires, thanks to the contact between carbon steel and stainless steel.
- the cables Cl 1 to Cl 4 were subjected to the belt test described in ⁇ 1-5, by measuring the initial breaking strength and the residual breaking strength (average values) for each type of wire, according to the position of the wire in the cable and for each of the cables tested.
- the lapse ⁇ Fm is given in% in table 6, both for the core wires (level marked N0), for the wires of the first internal layer (level marked NI), and for the wires of the second external layer (level marked N2).
- the overall ⁇ Fm lapses were also measured on the cables themselves, and not on the wires taken in isolation. On reading Table 6, the following results are found:
- the lapse of the wires of the second layer is substantially identical ( ⁇ Fm varying from 8.8 to 11%) whatever the cable tested, which constitutes an expected result insofar as the environment of these wires were the same regardless of the cable tested.
- the cables C-l 5 and C-l 6 were subjected to the belt test under the same conditions as above.
- the lapse ⁇ Fm is given in% in table 6, both for the core wires (level marked N0), for the wires of the first internal layer (level marked NI), and for the wires of the second external layer (level marked N2).
- the overall ⁇ Fm lapses were measured on the cables themselves, and not on the wires taken in isolation.
- the lapse of the wires of the second layer is substantially identical ( ⁇ Fm: 9 or 11%) whatever the cable tested, which is normal since the environment of these wires is the same as the cable either conforms or not to the invention.
- the presence of a stainless steel core wire by unexpectedly reducing the fatigue phenomena between the core and the wires of the first layer, therefore improves the overall behavior of the steel cable.
- the reduced wear between the core and the first layer has the advantageous consequence of significantly reducing the risks of jamming of the wires and of tension imbalance which may result therefrom.
- any type of cable with layer (s), hooped or non-hooped comprising in contact with one or more carbon steel wire (s) at least one stainless steel wire whose microstructure contains less than 20% by volume of martensite, such a layer cable having in particular the general structure (X + Y + Z) consisting of a core of X wire (s) surrounded and in contact with at least a first layer of Y wires, possibly itself surrounded by a second layer of Z wires, with X preferably varying from 1 to 4, Y from 3 to 12, Z from 8 to 20 if applicable.
- the central core consists of one or more stainless steel wire (s) surrounded and in contact with, minus a first layer of carbon steel wires.
- a layer cable (s) whose core consists of a single stainless steel wire such as for example cables of formula (1 + 6 + 12) or (1 + 6 +11) described in the previous tests, must be underlined: the core wire, taking into account its position in the cable, being less stressed during the wiring operation, it is not necessary for this wire use special compositions of stainless steel offering high torsional ductility.
- the envelopes reinforced in accordance with the invention therefore cover a distance of two to almost three times greater than that of the control envelope. Consequently, as demonstrated by the various embodiments which precede, the invention makes it possible to significantly improve the endurance of steel cables intended in particular for plastic and / or rubber articles, in particular for envelopes of tires, as well as the lifespan of these items themselves.
- the surface of a carbon steel wire with the surface of a stainless steel wire even when coatings are present on the surface of these wires in a very thin layer or ultra-thin, the fatigue-fretting-corrosion resistance of the carbon steel wire is unexpectedly improved.
- stainless steel wires were used according to EP-A-648 891 for their own properties of tensile strength, fatigue and corrosion, stainless steel wires are no longer used, in accordance with the present invention, only to improve the fatigue resistance properties of the other carbon steel wires with which they are wired.
- the tensile strength of the cables of the invention can thus be provided essentially by carbon steel wires, preferably the majority. Since stainless steel wires contribute only slightly or almost negligibly to the tensile strength of cables, the mechanical properties of these stainless steel wires are not critical. They are not critical in the sense that the composition and microstructure of stainless steel are no longer dictated, as was the case in cables formed from stainless steel wires of the prior art, by mechanical strength requirements. . A wide range of stainless steel compositions is thus possible, so as to be able to optimize the cost and method constraints for obtaining the wires.
- - carbon steel contains between 0.5% and 1.0%, more preferably between 0.68% and 0.95%) of carbon, these areas of concentration representing a good compromise between the mechanical properties required for the tire and the feasibility of the wire; it should be noted that in applications where the highest mechanical strengths are not necessary, whether they are used in tires or outside tires, it is advantageous to use carbon steels whose carbon content varies between 0 , 50%) and 0.68%, especially from 0.55% to 0.60%, such steels being ultimately less expensive because they are easier to draw;
- stainless steel contains less than 0.2% carbon (for ease of processing), between 16% and 20% chromium (good compromise between the cost of the wire and its corrosion properties), less than 10% nickel and less than 2% molybdenum (so as to limit the cost of the wire); - more preferably, stainless steel has less than 0.12% carbon (between 17%) and 19% chromium, and less than 8% nickel, the carbon content being more preferably still at most equal to 0 , 08%) (for the same reasons as above);
- At least one of the following characteristics is verified in the cable according to the invention:
- the microstructure of stainless steel comprises less than 10%, more preferably comprises less than 5% or is devoid of martensite (% by volume), such steel being less expensive and easier to transform;
- the steel wires for a good compromise between strength / flexural strength / feasibility, have a diameter ⁇ of between 0.10 and 0.45 mm, more preferably between 0.12 and 0.35 mm when the cable is intended reinforcing a tire envelope; even more preferably, the steel wires have a diameter ⁇ ranging from 0.15 to
- the carbon steel wires have a final work hardening rate ⁇ greater than 2.0, preferably greater than 3.0;
- the carbon steel wires have a tensile strength at least equal to 2000 MPa, more preferably greater than 2500 MPa;
- steel wires are carbon steel wires; even more advantageously, at least two thirds (2/3) of the steel wires are carbon steel wires;
- each carbon steel wire is in contact with at least one stainless steel wire.
- the invention is preferably implemented with structural cables (1 + 6 + 12) or (1 + 6 + 11), in particular when only the core wire is in stainless steel.
- the invention relates to any multi-strand hybrid steel cable ("multistrand rope") whose structure incorporates at least one strand according to the invention, in particular at least one strand of formula such as described above, of the type (1 x N), (P + Q) or also (X + Y + Z).
- the invention also relates to any hybrid multi-strand steel cable of which at least one strand of stainless steel (ie consisting of stainless steel wires) is in contact with one or more strand (s) of carbon steel (ie consisting of (s) of carbon steel wires), the invention also relates to the use of at least one strand of stainless steel, in such a multi-strand cable, to improve contact endurance in fatigue-fretting-corrosion sons in carbon steel from other strands.
- the stainless steel wires had a nickel coating and brass plating was carried out before the final work hardening, but other embodiments are possible, for example by replacing the nickel with another metallic material, for example copper, zinc, tin, cobalt or alloys of one or more of these compounds.
- the nickel was deposited in a relatively thick layer (approximately 0.3 ⁇ m before work hardening), but ultra-thin layers are sufficient, obtained for example by so-called "flash" deposits (for example of thickness 0.01 to 0.03 ⁇ m before drawing, i.e. 0.002 to 0.006 ⁇ m after drawing).
- the final work hardening could also be carried out on a so-called "clear" wire, i.e. without metal coating, whether it is a stainless steel wire or a carbon steel wire. It was found that the results of the belt test and of the rotary bending test were substantially identical, whether the stainless steel or carbon steel wires were clear or, on the contrary, coated with their respective coatings.
- the carbon steel wires could also be covered with a thin metallic layer other than brass, for example having the function of improving the corrosion resistance of these wires and / or their adhesion to rubber, by example a thin layer of Co, Ni, Zn, Al, Al-Zn alloy, an alloy of two or more of the compounds Cu, Zn, Ni, Co, Sn, such as for example a ternary Cu-Zn alloy Ni containing in particular from 5 to 15% of nickel, such a metallic layer being obtainable in particular by deposition techniques of the "flash" type as described above.
- the hybrid steel cables of the invention can on the other hand, without the spirit of the invention being modified, contain wires of different diameters or types, for example wires of stainless steels of different compositions or wires carbon steels of different compositions; they may also contain metallic wires other than carbon steel or stainless steel wires, in addition to the latter, or non-metallic wires such as wires made of mineral or organic materials.
- the cables of the invention may also include preformed wires, for example corrugated wires, intended to more or less ventilate the structure of the cables and to increase their penetrability with plastics and / or rubber, the periods of preformation or waving. such wires may be less than, equal to or greater than the pitch of the cables themselves.
