The base includes spacing protrusions in order to define the width of the gaps. The threaded stem is fixed at right angles to the base by interposition of a stem supporting portion that is connected to the base by means of at least one preweakened point. The knob is configured for gripping and removing by breaking the threaded stem, which includes a female thread portion adapted to be screwed to the threaded stem.
