In a made up state in which the shoulder parts are in contact with each other, clearances are provided between crests of the male thread part and roots of the female thread part. At a longitudinal section that includes a pipe axis of the threaded connection, the crests of the male thread part are formed in a convex curve that is tangent to both first corner portions which are formed in an arc that connect the crests and load flanks, and second corner portions which are formed in an arc that connect the crests and stabbing flanks. A solid lubricant coating is provided on the surface of the male thread part.
