A spheroidal graphite cast iron having a chemical composition of: C: 3.0% to 4.0%, Si: 2.0% to 2.4%, Cu: 0.20% to 0.50%, Mn: 0.15% to 0.35%, S: 0.005% to 0.030%, Mg: 0.03% to 0.06%, each by mass, and the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities, where Mn and Cu are contained at 0.45% to 0.75% in total; and a structure in which a ferrite layer encloses spheroidal graphite crystallized out in a matrix of pearlite. Part of the pearlite is extended from the matrix side to the spheroidal graphite side to divide the ferrite layer at one or more areas.
