A shock absorber includes a cylinder part (11), a piston rod part (12) configured as a single member, a pair of protruding members (13A, 13B) protruding from an outer circumferential surface of the piston rod part (12), and a piston valve assembly (A1) having the piston rod part (12) passing therethrough. The piston valve assembly (A1) includes a piston part (15), a valve element (16), and a threaded part (17) configured to extend or contract in an axial direction (X) as a result of rotation of a female thread portion (172) relative to a male thread portion (171). The piston valve assembly (A1) is configured such that the piston part (15) and the valve element (16) are retained to the piston rod part (12) not to move with respect to the axial direction (X) of the piston rod part (12) by a stretching force (F1) generated between the pair of protruding members (13A, 13B) due to extension of the threaded part (17). This facilitates disassembling or assembling operations such as rearrangement of plate members (161) and ensures a high degree of consistency of the axis line of a piston rod part (12) at opposite sides of a piston part (15) so that a stable generation of a damping force is achieved. |
