PCT No. PCT/JP94/00716 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 19, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 19, 1994 PCT Filed Apr. 28, 1994.A piston for a shock absorber as may be used in an automobile comprises a piston body, and a piston ring which covers the outer periphery thereof. One end of the piston ring is formed as a bend, which is received in a first receiving groove formed in the piston body. The first receiving groove comprises opposing end faces which extend in a direction orthogonal to the axis of the piston body, and a bottom surface which connects together the both end faces. The tip of the bend is disposed in abutment against the corner defined by one of the end faces and the bottom surface. As compared with the prior arrangement in which the end face comprising the corner is formed as a tapered surface, the tip of the bend is less likely to be displaced radially outward, thus reducing the possibility that he bend may be disengaged from he first receiving groove.
