Yes. These are designed to fit standard 1.2 mm cables, which covers the vast majority of derailleur and brake cables found on modern bicycles.

Absolutely. Unless you are running a busy professional repair shop, a bottle of 250 will likely last you for several years of regular maintenance and bike builds.
