Brake bleed pipe size

[Outcycling]

The nipples on my 2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0 ecoboost external diAmeter is 7.5mm. On sites people only seem to mention 5 or 6mm internal pipe diameter for the bleeding plastic tube. Will the 6mm stretch enough to do this?

I’m not sure what the OE bleeder screw diameter is in the U.K. Fiesta built in Cautitlaan have a nipple diameter closer to 8mm.
I use a Mityvac tool to bleed out the system and have purchased clear vinyl hose in various diameters to use for this. I like the clear vinyl because It allows me to see the fluid being purged.the hose material is extremely flexible and fits tightly over the bleeder.

Oo super helpful thanks. Looks like 6mm is probably fine I’d say then.
