Yup. I should have made that clear. Sorry for the omission.

This is completely unnecessary (and is a really bad idea) if you are
using Amphenol 83-1SP connectors -- they are silver-plated, which makes
them very easy to solder, and if you file them you remove the silver
plating!
83-1SP is the full part number, no additional letters or numbers.
