A component (1, 101) according to the invention includes a body (2, 102) of brittle material surrounded by a frame (3, 103) of polymeric material over-injected in a peripheral region (4, 104) of said body (2, 102), and means (7, 107), interposed between said frame (3, 103) and the body (2, 102), for absorbing the dimensional shrinkage of said polymeric material,. The component (1, 101) is characterized in that said frame (3, 103) includes one or more of first chambers (6, 106) provided to receive said shrinkage absorbing means (7, 107) and one or more of second chambers (8, 108) provided to absorb at least one part of the deformation of said shrinkage absorbing means (7, 107). The invention also refers to a method of manufacturing said component (1, 101).
