We have successfully improved the J/sub c/ value of Bi-2212 round wire to 500 kA/cm/sup 2/ at 4.2 K in self-field. The J/sub c/ value strongly depended on the filament size, aspect ratio, and geometry. Adjusting the filament size made it possible to obtain wires with J/sub c/ values higher than 450 kA/cm/sup 2/ in a range of wire diameters from 0.8 to 1.3 mm. The J/sub c/ value remained constant up to an applied tensile strength of 150 MPa. A 1 + 6 stranded cable fabricated using 1.02 mm diameter wires carried an I/sub c/ value of 4.5 kA at 4.2 K in self-field. A 16-strand Rutherford cable could also be fabricated using this wire.
