Abstract

A steel cord for the reinforcement of rubber articles is formed by twisting plural filament wires of a high carbon steel. In this case, the filament wire is drawn from a wire rod so as to satisfy a relationship of T.gtoreq.230-148 logD (wherein D is a diameter of the filament wire and T is a tensile strength of the filament wire) and a difference in tensile strength between a surface layer portion and an internal portion in the filament wire of not more than 80 kgf/mm.sup.2.
