METAL CORD AND RUBBER COMPOSITE-BODY

Provide are a rubber composition which is excellent in an initial adhesive property and a hygrothermal adhesive property with metals, a rubber-metal composite suited to rubber articles such as tires for automobiles, industrial belts and the like to which a strength is required, and a production method for the same. The metal cord-rubber composite of the present invention is prepared by coating a metal cord with a rubber composition, wherein an N atom on a surface of the metal cord accounts for 2 atomic % or more and 60 atomic % or less, and a Cu/Zn ratio is 1 or more and 4 or less.
