Default PCCB rotor hat bolt torque specs

I assume this is the right place for this, if not let me know where I should post it!

I am looking for the OEM torque spec for the 10 bolts fastening the rotor hat to the ring. They were pretty tight when I removed them and they all gave different removal torques so I can't use that. I have been reading that ~6ft/lbs is the spec for steel rotors with bolts this size but I don't want to mess anything up so I want to see if anyone knows.

The front rotors use 6mm bolts while the back rotors use 4mm bolts so I am guessing the spec is different? Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated! I am making custom hats to mount the PCCB onto another car.

What material are you using? Stainless steel or aluminum? Do you intend to use something like blue loc-tite?

I am using the OEM hardware which is stainless however the hats will likely be either 7075 or Stainless. I will be using high temp loctite.

I would look for a similar application to get an idea of the range to use for them. Can you think of a similar application that would use similar materials? And that you have specs for?
