A threaded connection for pipes includes a pin, a box, a shoulder part plating layer, and a non-shoulder part plating layer. The shoulder part plating layer has an outermost layer formed of a high friction coefficient plating layer, and is arranged on a pin side shoulder part and/or a box side shoulder part. The non-shoulder part plating layer has an outermost layer formed of a low friction coefficient plating layer having a coefficient of friction lower than a coefficient of friction of the high friction coefficient plating layer, and the non-shoulder part plating layer is arranged on at least one of a pin side thread part, a pin side metal seal part, a box side thread part, and a box side metal seal part.
