The peripheral edge of the bristle support and the sacrificial structures as well as the connecting edge of the cover part are then plasticised by heating. Then the bristle support and the cover part are pressed against one another, and the plasticised peripheral edge of the bristle support is welded to the plasticised connecting edge of the cover part. The plasticised material of the sacrificial structures flows into the volume remaining between the bristle support and the cover part and surrounded by the connecting edge, said plasticised material at least substantially filling said volume.
