man ipchains

-S, --set tcp tcpfin udp
Change the timeout values used for masquerading. This
command always takes 3 parameters, representing the
timeout values (in seconds) for TCP sessions, TCP sessions
after receiving a FIN packet, and UDP packets, respectively.
A timeout value 0 means that the current timeout value of
the corresponding entry is preserved. This option is only
allowed in combination with the -M flag.
