The invention relates to a travel limiting element in a brake booster device for a motor vehicle brake system, comprising a pair of longitudinal legs which are connected together via at least one transverse leg, wherein the travel limiting element can be brought into contact with a stop of the brake booster device. In favor of a simple design and cost-effective production, the travel limiting element comprises two dimensionally stable reinforcement braces which extend along the longitudinal legs, and the transverse leg is made of a damping material which surrounds the two longitudinal legs at least in sections.
