A device for applying a viscous sealant (D) in annular form onto a substantially flat surface, specifically on to a can end (14) is provided with an approximately horizontal annular transfer surface (2a, 3a) provided at the free upper end of a material transfer head (1). A pass (4) opening towards the transfer surface (2a, 3a) is provided in the material transfer head (1) and is fed with sealant from a continuously operating pump device (P1). An open-top interior (8) surrounded by the transfer surface (2a, 3a) and provided in the material transfer head (1), which is connected to a backflow pipe (9) for excess sealant, is, in addition, permanently connected to a vacuum source (P2). Further, a transfer device (18) is provided by which the can end (14) is vertically movable in relation to the transfer surface (2a, 3a). (FIG. 1).
