PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a spacer which allows for continuous transportation thereof, and to provide a transportation method of spacer, a processing method, and a processing apparatus.SOLUTION: A spacer S has a protrusion Sa formed so as to protrude from the outer peripheral side. If the spacer S is not located at a predetermined transfer position in a state where the spacer S is engaged with a transfer mechanism 41 for transferring the spacer S, the protrusion Sa comes into contact with a fixing piece 41d of the transfer mechanism 41 and moves and rotates the spacer S, when the transfer mechanism 41 holds the spacer S, thus locating the spacer S at the predetermined transfer position in a state where the spacer S is held by the transfer mechanism 41. |
