Rear dampers have multiple defences in there - an oil seal held deep inside, a dust wiper on the outside, a rod bushing to keep it sliding concentrically, a rubber o-ring sealing the outer diameter and a rebound top out bumper facing inwards. That bump stop can be a rubber ring or a small steel coil spring, and it makes sure no damage happens if the shock piston bumps into the bottom case (like when you jump the bike).
