An improved impact saddle is provided for use in place of a conventional impact roller assembly, for supporting a bulk material conveyor at an impact zone. The assembly includes a support frame which is adapted to be positioned in transverse relation to the length of the belt. The support frame forms a pair of side-by-side T-shaped supports which extend in parallel relation transversely of the belt. A plurality of polymeric low friction segments, such as high molecular weight polyethylene, are formed with lower T-shaped slots which are adapted to receive the Tshaped supports for threading onto the support frame. The segments have upper surfaces which collectively form a support for a section of the conveyor belt in the impact zone.
