In a webbing retractor, when a vehicle is in an emergency, a pretensioner mechanism supplies gas in a cylinder. A slider substantially closes a gas passing portion, and a piston thereby starts to move upward. A fitting portion pushes the slider upward so as to maintain the closure of the gas passing portion, and a webbing is taken up. When an energy absorbing member in a force limiter mechanism is deformed such that the webbing is pulled out, the piston is moved downward, the gas passing portion is opened by the slider so as to discharge the gas in the cylinder from the gas passing portion.
