Default torque value for new caps and rotors?

I just realized I don't know what to torque them down to. Does anyone know what the rotorsneed to be torqued down to? I'm assuming 12 ftlbs or close to it.

I'll wait a little while before putting on the caps in case anyone can look it up.

Thanks!

This is so screwed up. Some moderator always moves my topic even if it is vehicle specific and half the time they move it to the wrong section.

THAT'S IGNITION ROTOR, not brake rotor!!!

Calm your TONE DOWN. There are 25+ sections it can be moved to, all closely together in the listings, easy to click the wrong thing, things happen. Put them in the right spot to begin with please
