COMPOSITE CORD AND TIRE USING SAME

A composite cord 10 is composed of two first strands 11 formed of aramid fibers and one second strand 12 formed of nylon fibers. In a cross section perpendicular to a length direction, a ratio L2/L0 of a length L2 of an exposed surface (12S) of the second strand 12 along the outer cord periphery to a length L0 of an exposed surface (10S) of the composite cord 10 along the outer cord periphery is in a range of 0.30 or more and 0.40 or less.
