Uxcell produces high quality stuff in general, and their washers are made specifically for PCBs. Here's a link to ones I purchased that worked perfectly with GMK screwn-in stabilizers.

You want this or something like it
Ideally you should use washers like these: https://www.amazon.com/1600pcs-Insulating-Washer-2mmx4mmx0-3mm-Motherboard/dp/B00TX5P3OG/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_2?keywords=1600pcs+Insulating+Fiber+Washer+Spacer+2mmx4mmx0.3mm+for+Motherboard&qid=1558147837&s=gateway&sr=8-2-fkmrnull

However you can also just use a thin strip of electrical tape to cover whatever contacts the screws were touching on the pcb

Those don't come with it - he lists the kinda stuff he uses on his amazon list.
It's not usually a problem, since the screw doesn't short stuff out that often. Only on some PCBs, in certain places. But as a pleb who doesn't want to buy special parts, I just use a little patch of electrical tape.
