The invention is relating to a steel cord for rubber reinforcement. The steel cord has a construction comprising an outer layer and an inner strand surrounded by and adjacent to the outer layer, the inner strand comprises at least one steel filament with a number of N1 and an average diameter of d1 expressed in mm, the outer layer comprises steel filaments with a number of N2 and an average diameter of d2 expressed in mm, the inner strand has a torque T1 and the outer layer has a torque T2, the relation between T1 and T2 are defined. By doing this, the tip rise problem of the rubber ply reinforced by steel cords is reduced.
