Seeking Salt Bath Nitriding Specification

Seeking engineering drawing specifications that refer to SBN -Salt Bath Nitriding of metal parts. Are there MIL specs that describe this? The data on our drawings for parts that are finished with this process need to be updated.

Thank you,

Depending on the exact process being used, one of the following SAE standards is likely the appropriate specification:

SAE AMS2753 Liquid Salt Bath Ferritic Nitrocarburizing Non-Cyanide Bath.

SAE AMS2755 Nitriding, Molten Salt Bath https://www.sae.org/servlets/productDetail?PROD_TYP=STD&PROD_CD=AMS2755D
