A shear band for a non-pneumatic tire is disclosed. The shear band comprises a plurality of oblong cords arranged in parallel layers, each of the oblong cords having a cross section defining a greater lateral width than a radial height. The shear band may be used in a non-pneumatic tire comprising a central rim for coupling the tire to a vehicle wheel, a connecting web including a plurality of spokes coupled to the central rim and extending radially outward therefrom. The shear band circumscribes the connecting web and is coupled thereto. Also, a method of manufacturing a shear band for a non-pneumatic tire is disclosed. The method comprises: pressing a plurality of filaments together to form oblong cords having a cross section defining a greater lateral width than a radial height; heat treating the oblong cords; and installing the oblong cords in a plurality of parallel circumferential layers to form the shear band.
