Front brake caliper brakets ?

How many foot lbs does it take to tighten them. I changed the front rotors and they were easy to take out. I had reinstalled new rotors and put the bolts back in but one became loose. SO now I want to torque them down. I just need to now how many FT LBs.

Thanks Jason
