Would still hold in place since there's no turning torque on those pins. Even on race-bike, brake-caliper won't get too hot for too long (at least if you're going fast). Replacement pins come with blue threadlocker pre-applied to threads. Vibration can back it out due to such low torque for that size fastener. Avoid temptation to use more torque to hold it in as that will cause you issues when trying to remove later... damn $@)#&*! POs
