Teflon is Teflon, no matter who makes the connector.  Unless you are using a 
3000 watt soldering gun, at full power, one is not going to melt the Teflon 
dielectric.  (When using the silver plated connectors!)  I just can't see 
paying the 50 cents extra apiece for the Amphenols' when the no name 
silver/Teflon connectors work (and last) just as well.
