Abstract (en)

Disclosed are a wire rod and a method therefor. The wire rod is excellent in wire-drawing workability, insusceptible to wire break in spite of an increase in wire-drawing rate, and reduction of area, and capable of extending a die life by suppressing die wear. The wire rod is made of steel containing C: 0.6 to 1.1 %, Si: 0.1 to 2.0%, Mn: 0.1 to 1 %, P: not more than 0.20 %, S: not more than 0.20 %, N: not more than 0.006 %, Al : not more than 0.03 %, and O: not more than 0.003 %, the balance including Fe, and unavoidable impurities. Further, the wire rod comprises a pearlite structure wherein an area ratio of a second-phase ferrite is not more than 11.0 %, and a pearlite lamellar spacing is not less than 120 µm.
