The purpose of the present invention is to provide a viscous material application apparatus capable of reliably applying an appropriate amount of a viscous material to a shaft-shaped member. A seal application apparatus () is provided with a flexible tubular nozzle (), which is capable of discharging a sealing agent from an opening () formed on the tip thereof, and an actuator () for moving the nozzle (). After or during discharge of the sealing agent by the nozzle (), the tip of the nozzle () moves in the circumferential direction along the outer circumferential surface of a fastener (), and as the nozzle () is stopping the discharge of the sealing agent, the tip of the nozzle () moves in a direction away from the outer circumferential surface of the fastener ().
