Abstract
An electrically insulating supporting structure, such as of an electrically heatable catalytic converter or honeycomb body being mechanically loadable in all directions for metallic bonding to electrically conductive components being electrically separated from one another, includes a first metallic structure, a second metallic structure and an electrically insulating, ceramic material disposed between the structures and three-dimensionally pressed-in from substantially all sides. The structures are shaped to exert pressure from substantially all sides onto the ceramic material, without touching one another.
