The invention relates to a device (1) for transporting tabular goods (2), such as sheet metal panels (3) or the like, having a transport means (4) and a retaining device (11) retaining the product (3) on the transport means (4), said retaining device being designed as a vacuum retaining device (12), the vacuum thereof acting through the transport means (4). According to the invention, the vacuum retaining device (12) comprises at least one suction channel (19) extending in the transport direction or substantially in the transport direction and open toward the transport means (4) at least in a longitudinal segment thereof, said channel being connected at the product insertion end (21) thereof – as seen in the direction of transport – to at least one vacuum source (23), wherein an air penetration cross section (33) is present at the transport means (4) in the uncovered area of the open suction channel (19), dependent on the position of the product, and wherein a suction channel cross section (34) extending transversely, particularly at right angles, to the transport direction, if applicable dependent on the position of the product, is at most equally as large as or smaller than the corresponding air penetration cross section (33) at the product leading edge (29) of a product (2) retained and transported on the retaining device (11), at least over a partial length of the suction channel (19).
