In a seatbelt retractor of this invention is provided with an energy-absorbing means which performs an energy absorption by twisting a rotational shaft of a spool (first energy-absorbing means) and an energy-absorbing means which performs an energy absorption by twisting a wire 2b (second energy-absorbing means), a containing side (upper side of the disk member 2c) which contains the wire 2b and a take-up side (side between the disk member 2c and a plate body 2a) which takes up the wire after being pulled out from the containing side and being twisted are made on different planes, so that the length of the wire which constitutes the second energy-absorbing means can be made longer, and the energy-absorbing time by both the torsion bar and the wire can be extended.
