3/32x at least an inch... too long doesn't matter. these should be replaced every time you remove them. don't make curly cues out of the ends and they'll be easier to remove...

They shouldn't be re-used. Go to your parts store, they have tons of them and their cheap. It's pretty much a universal fit for most things.
