A switching element (1) for a valve drive of an internal combustion engine, preferably for shutting off valves, is provided, and includes an external part (2) in whose bore (3) an inner element (5) is axially movable. The external part (2) and the inner element (5) have at least a respective mutually aligned recess (7, 8) due to an axially spaced relative position obtained through a lost motion spring (6), and in one of the recesses, in the direction of the other recess, displaceable coupling means (9) are mutually applied in the relative position for coupling the inner element (5) with the external part (2). Two pistons (10) are provided as coupling means (9), which travel in the recess (8) formed as a radial bore of the inner element (5), and which diametrically oppose one another. The recess (7) of the external part (2) is formed as an annular groove (16) in the bore (3), and the pistons (10) at their underside (17) remote from the cam, starting from their radially external end faces (13), sectionally have a planar transverse surface (14) as contact region to a facing annular surface (15) of the annular groove (16), and the pistons (10) are guided with rotation securement (19) in the inner element (5). This provides a switching element (1) which has a simply constructed coupling mechanism, which produces only a small component loading.
