The invention relates to a
shock absorber (1) having a damping
piston which can be moved back and forth in an axial direction relative to a main
pipe having a hydraulic medium, the main
pipe being arranged in a container
pipe (5), an intermediate pipe being arranged between the main pipe and the container pipe (5), wherein the main pipe, the intermediate pipe and the container pipe (5) are coaxially arranged in a three-pipe damping structure (2), the damping
piston is attached to the end of the
piston rod, and the three-pipe damping structure (2) is equipped with a hydraulic end position
damper and has a central valve block with two
damper valve devices at the end thereof facing away from the
piston rod. In order to improve the
shock absorber (1) in terms of function and / or production technology, the central valve block is partially surrounded by an
air spring which comprises an
air spring housing surrounding the central valve block, and the three-pipe shock absorption structure (2) has a gas compensation volume at the end of the
piston rod of the three-pipe shock absorption structure. And the gas compensation volume is arranged in an annular space between the intermediate tube and the container tube (5).
