Oscillation damper

My comment:

Since this is enclosing a cylinder, which presumably houses a piston, then this is the answer you need, as a cylinder is prone to oscillation, rather than vibration or shocks. Ernst WB der industriellen Technik offers this as an alternative answer.

Brownie points to you for the context....

A cylinder can be highly prone to vibration (which in any case is simply a particular - and fairly arbitrarily defined - oscillation) in certain circumstances.
