The invention discloses a production method of high-strength and long-fatigue-life spring steel. The chemical compositions of the spring steel comprise, by weight, 0.51-0.59% of carbon, 1.40-1.60% ofsilicon, 0.50-0.80% of manganese, 0.012% or less of phosphorus, 0.010% or less of sulphur, 0.02% of or less niobium, 0.005% or less of titanium, 0.005% or less of aluminum, 0.50-0.80% of chromium andthe balance Fe and unavoidable impurities. The production method comprises the technological steps that (1) smelting is conducted; (2) continuous casting is conducted; (3) coping is conducted; and (4)rolling and controlled cooling are conducted, and the high-strength and long-fatigue-life wire spring steel taking a sorbite structure as a matrix is produced. According to the production method of the high-strength and long-fatigue-life spring steel, the diameter of a representative steel type, namely an X55SiCrA steel wire rod, is 5.5 mm, the tensile strength is 1000 MPa or over, the area reduction is 40% or over, the grade A, the grade B, the grade C and the grade D of inclusions are all smaller than 1.0, a DS type inclusion is not contained, and the using requirements of a valve spring for an automobile can be well met.
