A fluid coupling includes and houses, in a plug and a socket: valves; springs that bias the valves so as to bring the valves into pressure contact with valve seats; and spring holders which position and hold the springs. When the plug is inserted into the socket, the valves abut against each other and are retracted, and flow paths in the plug and the socket are connected to each other. Each of the valves includes: a largest diameter portion that abuts against an inner circumferential surface of the plug or the socket and positions the valve in an axial direction thereof; and inclined surfaces reduced in diameter from the largest diameter portion toward both sides in the axial direction.
