A plated steel wire for a parallel wire strand (PWS) with excellent twist properties can include, in terms of mass %, about 0.8 to 1.1% of C, about 0.8 to 1.3% of Si, about 0.3 to 0.8% of Mn, about 0.001 to 0.006% of N, and about 0.0004 to 0.0060% of B, where a quantity of solid-solubilized B is at least 0.0002%. Such exemplary wire can include either one or both of about 0.005 to 0.1% of Al and/or about 0.005 to 0.1% of Ti, and may contain, as the remainder, Fe and unavoidable impurities. For example, an area fraction of non-pearlite structures in a region from a surface layer down to a depth of about 50 μm is likely not more than about 10%, an area fraction of non-pearlite structures within an entire cross-section is likely not more than about 5%, and a surface of the steel wire can be galvanized with a plating quantity within a range from about 300 to 500 g/m2.
