To prevent increasing of a number of windings of an element wire and collapsing of a shape, in a bend core of a pneumatic tire.

In this pneumatic tire, a peripheral directional position of a continuous part 44 continued while tilting a peripheral direction finish/start end 42, 43 of a ring part 41 is made equal in an element wire layer 39 with the ring part 41 existing. In this way, a total length of the ring part 41 and the continuous part 44 is equal to one turn length, and a number of winding of an element wire 40 is increased. Since the continuous part 44 in each element wire layer 39 is mutually closely arranged, no gap is provided between the adjacent continuous parts 44, thereby, deformation and deviation of the element wire 40 in the vicinity of the continuous part 44 are suppressed.
