The invention discloses an electromagnetic valve and a shock absorber. The electromagnetic valve comprises a main valve element (19), a pilot valve element (11), a pilot overflow valve needle (12), a first elastic piece (16), a second elastic piece (17) and a magnetic actuator. The main valve element (19) is provided with an overflow channel (15) and a pilot channel (14). When the magnetic actuator is in a power-off state, the acting force of the magnetic actuator disappears, and the pilot valve element (11) moves in the direction away from the pilot overflow valve needle (12) under the elastic force effect of the second elastic piece (17). The displacement of the pilot overflow valve needle (12) is jointly acted by the medium pressure in the first elastic piece (16) and the pilot channel (14), and the acting force directions of the medium pressure in the first elastic piece (16) and the pilot channel (14) are opposite, so that when the medium pressure in the pilot channel (14) reaches a threshold value, the elastic force of the first elastic piece (16) can be overcome, the pilot overflow valve needle (12) is pushed to move to a second conduction position, and the pilot overflow valve needle (12) is stopped from moving. And therefore, the overflow channel (15) is communicated, the pressure in the control cavity is reduced, and the main valve core (19) is in an open state. The electromagnetic valve and the shock absorber work normally under the condition of power failure, and due to the fact that a side channel and a side armature do not need to be arranged, the structure is simplified.
