The embodiment of the invention provides tire cord steel and a manufacturing method thereof. The tire cord steel comprises, by
mass, 0.825%-0.845% of C, 0.17%-0.21% of Si, 0.50%-0.54% of Mn, smaller than or equal to 0.018% of P, smaller than or equal to 0.010% of S, 0.04% of Cr, smaller than or equal to 0.04% of Ni, smaller than or equal to 0.05% of Cu, 0.01% of Mo, smaller than or equal to 0.0010% of Ti, smaller than or equal to 0.0020% of AL, smaller than or equal to 0.0045% of N, smaller than or equal to 0.007% of Sn and the balance iron and inevitable
impurity elements. The inclusion in the
wire rod comprises the following components in percentage by
mass: 5-15% of Al2O3, 3-15% of MgO, less than or equal to 0.05% of
TiN, less than or equal to 0.05% of TiO2, less than or equal to 0.5% of CaS, less than or equal to 4% of MnO, 39-47% of SiO2 and 36-45% of CaO. The manufacturing cost of the tire cord steel is low.
