An RF terminating resistor with a flange body, a planar layer structure, an upper face of a substrate, a resistance layer, an input conductor track, and an earth connection conductor track. The input conductor track electrically connected to opposite ends of the resistance layer. The substrate having a contact face, facing away from the layer structure. The flange body being bent around in a direction parallel to a first edge facing the earth conductor track, and a predetermined section bent around in a direction at right angles to this edge. The bent-around section extending in a space between a first plane, defined by the contact face, and a second plane, defined by the upper face, with the substrate abutting on the bent-around section connecting the contact face to the upper face and facing the earth connection conductor track on the upper face.
