Abstract

A fluid pressure cylinder has a piston rod 18 fixed to a piston 26 and projecting outside a cylinder body 23. A lock surface 43 inclining to a radial direction of the piston rod 18 is formed in an engagement member 31 provided in the piston rod 18. A lock rod 35 reciprocating in an about right-angle direction to the piston rod 18 is built into a lock cylinder 33 provided in the cylinder body 23. The lock rod 35 is provided with: a large-diameter section 35a fitted into a guide hole 36 formed in the lock cylinder 33; and a slide contact section 37 provided in the large-diameter section 35a via a constriction section 35b. The slide contact section 37 contacts with a radial-inner portion of the lock surface 43 when the lock rod 35 comes nearest to the piston rod 18.
