The invention relates to a threaded portion of a tubular member for a threaded tubular connection having an axis of rotation, the portion comprising a thread extending along its outer or inner peripheral surface and a first sealing surface on the peripheral surface, wherein the first sealing surface is configured to provide an interference fit metal-to-metal contact with a corresponding second sealing surface belonging to a complementary threaded portion. The thread and the first sealing surface are coated with a metal anti-seize layer, where zinc (Zn) is the main element by weight, while the metal anti-seize layer is at least partially coated with a lubricant layer containing resin and dry solid lubricant powder dispersed in the resin. |
