The sealing portion includes a distal sealing portion caused to contact an inner wall surface of a retainer at a closed position and a flexible joint portion joining the distal sealing portion and the damper body together. The distal sealing portion has a cross section configured by a projected curved portion and contacts the inner wall surface of the retainer at the curved portion. At least a part of the joint portion has an increased thickness portion having a thickness increasing toward the damper body.
