i'm looking to replace the rubber [sometimes cork] bushings/pads that support the chassis. of a model 60 in my case. the rubber ones in the radio are 5/16" thick and not quite an inch in diameter. with a small hole for the lag-type screw that threads in from below. anyone know of a supplier? or what to ask for at the hardware store.
thanks.

Here is another long time popular supplier for vintage electronics https://www.tubesandmore.com/search/node...r%20washer though they quote 1/4'' for washer thickness.
