I've used 1/4" nylon bolts for the last 10 years, with the transformer sitting on a 1/4" Sorbothane pad. I surmised the nylon bolt would be better inside the 'donut' (than steel) and the Sorbothane pad was to reduce vibration transmission.
I also thought that getting a dished washer made up from 1/16" copper sheet would be an advantage ... but you say in fact the original steel washer would be better (as it would tend to "imprison" the magnetic field)?
Thanks,
Andy
