Default keel bolt torque

Hi,
can anyone advise me on the roughly correct torque setting for
tightening the nuts on my keelbolts?
The studs are 20mm (thats about 13/16") in 316L plus one at
12mm(about 1/2")

The keel is 2 tonnes of lead if that makes any difference.

I'd hate at this stage (five long and bloody years) to over or
undertighten the bolts.

Thanks
Pete
