A tensioner for a driving member includes a piston (4) guided slidably in a housing (1) and spring-loaded against the driving member. The tensioner further includes a damping device (9, 18) for damping movements of the piston through discharge of hydraulic fluid, such as engine oil, from a pressure chamber (16) via at least one leak gap (13, 26) of the damping device (9, 18). A simple and economic implementation of the leak gap is assured by arranging a rotationally symmetrical body such as a cylinder (10) in a receptacle (11, 24) of the damping device (9, 18), so that the leak gap (13, 26) is formed between the wall (12, 25) of the receptacle and the peripheral surface of the rotationally symmetrical body (10).
