Abstract
A steel cord with a construction of m+n having a first group of core filaments having a number of m and a second group of sheath filaments having a number of n, the second group and the first group are twisted around each other with the same twist pitch and same twist direction, wherein the core filaments are not twisted with each other, the core filaments are parallel or have a twist pitch being more than 300 mm, and the sheath filaments have a twist pitch being less than or equal to 30 mm, the core filaments have an average tensile strength Tc in MPa when being un-ravelled from said steel cord, the sheath filaments have an average tensile strength Ts in MPa when being un-ravelled from said steel cord, Tc and Ts satisfy: 5<(Tc−Ts)<200. The steel cord has high breaking load and high production efficiency without cost increase.
