PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an inexpensive plated steel wire that is produced without deteriorating productivity and is excellent in adhesiveness to rubber in which Co salt is not blended, and that has little deterioration of adhesive strength.SOLUTION: There is provided an extra fine plated steel wire which has a wire diameter of 0.1 to 0.4 mm and has on the surface thereof, a plating layer 2 having average thickness of 50 to 500 nm, and in which the plating layer contains, by mass%, carbon black of 1 (hereafter described as CB) of 0.1 to 5 mass% and the balance Cu with inevitable impurities and average diameter of a primary particle of the CB is 10 to 100 nm. There are also provided a rubber composite using the extra fine plated steel wire and a production method for the plated steel wire. This enables the extra fine plated steel wire to have improved strength of adhesion to rubber in which Co salt is not blended and enables the extra fine plated steel wire to have suppressed long-term deterioration of the adhesive strength.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 |
