Abstract: A stop assembly for damper masses of a damper system has a stop device and a stop device carrier which holds the stop device. The stop device has at least one shoulder, which is intended to engage in at least one associated receiving portion of the stop device carrier. In at least one support region, the shoulder is oversized relative to the associated receiving portion to facilitate captive engagement in the receiving portion, and, at a distance from the at least one support region, the shoulder is undersized relative to the associated receiving portion to facilitate assembly-simplifying engagement in the receiving portion.
