Deep treads

I"ve got a set of Firestone deep treads and it says "Suprlon"
Above gum dipped. Anyone know what that means?
 
SUPER-LON or S-LON CORD...
"It is a nylon multi-filament that has a nice bulk to it and has a texture that is similar to heavy upholstery thread but avoids stretching."

Firestone Patented Gum-Dipping Process
By this process every cotton fiber in every cord in every ply in every Firestone Tire is saturated and coated with pure rubber--eight additional pounds of it are absorbed in every one hundred pounds of cord--eliminating damaging frictional heat, the greatest enemy of tire life. No other tire has such blowout protection, because no other tire is built nor can be built with Gum-Dipped High Stretch Cords.
