Abstract
Provided is a shock absorber that is so designed that fail-down is prevented, which is caused when solenoid thrust is relatively small. The shock absorber comprises a chamber disposed on one side of a valve element and communicating with a cylinder's one side chamber and a cylinder's other side chamber, a first communication passage allowing the chamber and the cylinder's one side chamber to communicate with each other, and a second communication passage allowing the chamber and the cylinder's other side chamber to communicate with each other. The first communication passage includes a first orifice, and the second communication passage includes a second orifice.
