Should be okay, though it depends where the cap is placed.

In any case, the thing you really need to be most aware of is that those soft film caps are sensitive to heat from soldering, so try not to excessively heat the leads on that film cap with your iron.

Thanks momaka: it's to be place in the H.O. and V.O. power supply of a Sony 36HS500,

Should be okay, I think. I have seen plenty of Sony CRT monitors use those film caps on their D boards.
