The external thread profile includes a first section that extends at a first taper angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the threaded connection, a second section extending from the first section at a second taper angle relative to the longitudinal axis, and an intermediate shoulder provided at a transition between the first and second sections and engageable with a corresponding intermediate shoulder provided on the internal thread profile. A cross-sectional area of the pin end increases at the intermediate shoulder.
