The RCScrewz kits are stainless. Which is pretty soft. They're meant more for corrosion resistance, than strength.
They are harder than the factory hardware. I've never stripped a head on one yet. I have rounded lower quality hex driver tips on the stainless screws. So IMO they are a good improvement over stock.

stainless soft, no it depends what grade you buy. Break a head off a stainless bolt and try to drill it. You'll melt a drill bit before you put a dent in the bolt, lol

Well, obviously it depends on the grade. The RCScrewz are a bit soft. The screw heads, in particular. Like I said, they're meant more for corrosion resistance, than strength.
