4.75mm tubing sound right?

All I could find so far in searching was a reference from someone who said they used 3/16" brake line, which I guess is a possibility but since this repair needs to interface with the existing lines it is probably best to use the proper size.
A 3/16" line equates to 4.76mm. This is very close to the 4.75mm which the metric flaring tool I'm considering will accept. So is it 4.75mm tubing and associated fittings I'm looking for?
Of course this had to happen in November! Since I'm working outside this needs to get done before freezing weather comes in or it will probably have to wait until spring...
