The stock fasteners that came with my mags were s**t and not very long they sheared yes all 6 sheared off! I then had to extract the broken bolts retap the holes and replace the bolts with a better grade hardened ones and sunk them 30mm deep no issues since.
 
ok it actually seems like threads may still exsist in each hole it looks like ill do that tho im sure thats my issue i doubt it was torque that did it right lol
I think in my case it was a combination of the torque,the bolts not being very deep and of s**tty quality.
 
yea 10.9 was quality of steel of mine but i think my problem was exaclty like yours now even the sprocket holes took some damage lol thats the one bolt that was still barely in there that i recieved i put it between two clutch cover screws from the bike berry hd screw set

Sprocket damage is from bolts being lose, just like a car when lug nuts come lose. Don't try to reuse, get a new one.............Curt
 
I've got Amazon returning it it was barely 34 days since I got it lol but outta common sense I grabbed my other mag rim from my black set and drilled and retapped em to 6mm and put 6 20mm long hex caps in it so that one doesn't do it too
