This invention is a heatseal die which is intended to replace one die of a pair of heatseal dies normally employed in a packaging machine. The die of the invention differs from the die normally employed in that the lower portion of the die face, which forms the heatseal at the top of the package, has ribs which are horizontal instead of vertical. Being horizontal, the ribs intersect the vertical ribs of an opposing die, instread of meshing with them as the ribs of the die normally employed do. The pattern of point seals formed where the ribs intersect forms a good gastight seal but reduces the force required to break the seal, thereby permitting the package to be opened more easily. In a preferred embodiment, the lower portion of the die face is detachable so it can be easily replaced with another die face having a different rib pattern, so that when it is desired to run a film having different heatseal characteristics on the packagaing machine, the die face can be quickly replaced with one which is better suited for the differnt heatseal characteristics.
