Front hub torque

Is there a recommended torque setting for the half nuts on the spindle that pull the hub and back plate together (not the nuts that hold the wheel to the fork links)?
Thanks

Anyone? Front hub torque

I doubt if anyone can get a torque wrench to those nuts, I use ring spanners until they're firm but without overtightening them.
