A component for mounting on a PCB, intended to support an electronics component, with an extension in the longitudinal, lateral and vertical directions. The component has a first and a second main surface, the second main surface being intended for mounting on the PCB. The component is made in a non conducting material, with a first layer of conducting material arranged on its first main surface, the conducting layer being connected to a conducting layer on the second main surface of the component by electrically conducting means. The component's extension in the vertical direction is smaller than its extension in either the longitudinal or lateral direction.
