Hi
You could try a Dowty Seal instead of a fibre washer, Metric M6 will fit 1/4 inch OK. For those unfamiliar, this is a thin metal washer with a bonded rubber inner part.
If you prefer to stick with fibre washers, they can be softened a bit by soaking in water. The softening allows a better seal without excess pressure being needed.
