They have to be done exactly to the specified torque. "Rock tight with lock tight"
Seriously there would be a specified torque but even a brake specialist will just do them as tight as he can pull a half inch drive 12 inch bar socket with one hand. |

my manual says "caliper lock bolts......22-31nm" but that doesnt sound enough.
Id do them up to 60mn or FT.
