Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a slide component that can exhibit sealing performance and lubricity regardless of rotating direction. A pair of slide components 4, 7 that slide relative to each other have sliding faces S that slide relative to each other, and a sealed fluid-side periphery 16 and a leakage-side periphery 15. The sliding face S of at least one slide component 4 of the pair of slide components 4, 7 includes: a fluid introduction groove 13 in communication with the sealed fluid-side periphery 16; a first pressure generation mechanism 12 of which one end is in communication with the fluid introduction groove 13 and the other end is surrounded by a land portion R1; and a second pressure generation mechanism 11 of which one end is in communication with the leakage-side periphery 15 and the other end is surrounded by an annular land portion R2. The fluid introduction groove 13 and the other end 12e of the first pressure generation mechanism 12 include overlapping portions Lp overlapping circumferentially.
