ABSTRACT:
Threaded joint for pipes consisting of a male member (1) and a female member (2), which are provided on the outer and inner surfaces respectively with two threading portions presenting a lead-in flank β such that 10°≦β≦25°, an abutment surface (9) being present at the end of said male member for abutment to a corresponding annular abutment surface (10) of the female member. The lead-in flanks of the male (1) and the female (2) members, upon make-up and with unloaded joint leave a gap (in the direction parallel to the axis (21) of the joint) varying from 0.01 to 0.12 mm. The internal and external diameters D3and D4(of the pipe portion not involved in the coupling with the female member) of said male member, the inner and outer diameters D1and D2of the abutment surface of the female member are linked by the relationship: (D22−D12)/(D42−D32)≧0.5.
