Really, your weak point is the threads in the aluminum. They may be able to hold higher torques when freshly cut, but after years of corrosion, you're lucky if you can put 6 ftlb on them without pulling the threads. One or two of mine are barely hanging on. I'll probably need to timesert them next WP job. Stainless bolts would be a good idea, though.
