Abstract

In a damper, in particular for spin-drying cylinder washing machines, it is provided, with a view to obtaining low-noise and low-wear guidance of a tappet in a casing, that the damper comprises a guiding damping unit which damps any deflections of the tappet in the radial direction and centers the tappet in the casing.
