Abstract (en)

A steel cord for the reinforcement of rubber articles is formed by twisting 4-5 strands, each strand (1) being formed by twisting a sheath (3) of 4-5 steel filaments around a core (2) of a single steel filament, wherein a ratio of diameter dS of the steel filament constituting the sheath to diameter dC of the steel filament constituting the core is within a range of 1.00 - 1.75, and a twisting direction of the sheath in the strand is the same as a twisting direction of the strand in the cord, and a twisting angle a of the sheath in the strand with respect to an axis of the cord, as calculated by a certain defined equation, is within a range of 30 - 52 DEG . <IMAGE>
