The disclosure relates to a thread formation and to a downhole tool comprising a hollow tubular pipe section having an end on which the thread formation is provided. The thread formation comprises a first thread having a first thread start and a second thread having a second thread start, wherein the first thread start is operatively rotationally in advance of the second thread start. Accordingly, the first thread is configured to engage at least partially with a complementary thread formation on another downhole tool before the second thread engages with the complementary thread formation.
