Diode bridge substitution on 2225 P800 power supply

I’m trying to identify modern components to replace diode bridges H801 and H802 on the power supply board (P800) of a 2225. After much searching, I can’t seem to find any information about these components’ specifications.

The part numbers are:
H801: HD2001508; description SS-3R
H802: HD2001408; description SS-3

The service manual lists part numbers but no specs for these components, and I’ve found no specs by googling those part numbers or searching AK posts. I found this product page, were the photo seems to match, but there are no accompanying specs.

I don’t see the bridges’ part numbers included in the Transistor/diode substitution guide from this forum. The high-power diodes listed in that spreadsheet are “5B2” and “6B20,” but there are no substitutions identified for either.

Since they’re diode bridges, I would be fine replacing each one with a pair of diodes. I just need to know the specs in order to select the proper components.

I think I could estimate the diode spec to first order given the rectified voltage (+/-30VDC) and the rated power of the main amplifier (25W/channel, or 50W total), which this rectifier supplies. But I’d rather just go off a spec if possible, since the first order calculations won’t necessarily capture all the requirements that the engineers considered.

Here’s a picture of the diode bridges. Does anyone know their spec, or where to find it? Or even better, an identified substitute?

I also have these diodes in my Marantz 1070. They're blown open, so I'm also looking for suitable replacements. Anyone replace these diodes before?
 
This thread has some discussion on how to make use of the bridge/bracket with modern diode substutes.

Big thanks!
