Abstract
A sliding component includes a pair of sliding parts of which a rotating-side sliding part rotates in both forward and reverse directions. In the sliding component, at least one of the sliding parts has a sliding face provided with positive pressure generation grooves on the sealed fluid side, and a negative pressure generation groove on the opposite-to-sealed-fluid side and separated from the opposite-to-sealed-fluid side by a land, and a deep groove communicating with the sealed fluid side on the sealed fluid side of the negative pressure generation groove. The positive pressure generation grooves each have an upstream end communicating with the deep groove, and the negative pressure generation groove has an upstream inlet and a downstream outlet that communicate with the deep groove, and an intermediate portion between the inlet and the outlet located on the opposite-to-sealed-fluid side of the inlet and the outlet.
