An improved brake actuator, particularly an improved sealed service chamber, having a flexible tubular seal affixed at one end in the central pushrod opening in sealed relation and surrounding the pushrod in sealed relation in the service chamber housing. The improved seal is generally hourglass-shaped including a midportion which closely circumscribes the pushrod in sealed relation and a free end portion which closely circumscribes the pushrod. A relatively inflexible generally diamond-shaped washer surrounds the midportion of the seal which improves sealing, assures concentricity of the tubular seal, prevents the seal from being pushed through the pushrod opening and provides for easy assembly of the seal and washer assembly in the service chamber around the pushrod. The improved end wall of the service chamber housing includes an offset recessed central portion surrounding the mounting bolts and relatively thin preferably V-shaped contact surfaces which generally circumscribe the recessed portion. The contact surfaces are drawn tightly against the mounting bracket as the nuts on the mounting bolts are torqued against the mounting bracket, significantly reducing vibration between the end wall of the service chamber and the mounting bracket.
