Abstract
A threaded connection for large diameter steel pipe exhibits high torque resistance and high sealability and, at the same time, provides a shear resistance that suits the size of the steel pipe to be connected. The threaded connection includes a tubular pin provided on a tip of a steel pipe with large diameter, and a tubular boxadapted to be drawn up on the pin as the pin is screwed in. The pin includes a male threadform made with a taper thread. The box includes a female threadform made with a taper thread. Each of the threadforms are wedge threads and have a dovetail-shaped cross section. The male threadform is designed such that the width of the thread in an end region of the male threadform closer to the tip is set to a size corresponding to the size of the pipe body of the steel pipe.
