A connector for belt ends for belt conveyors in which a belt is guided by a tube. A clamp member is secured to each end of the belt and a hinge pivotally connects the clamps. The clamps are provided with long sharp barbs which spread the reenforcing cords of the belt as the barbs penetrate the belt on assembly to thereby reduce the number of cords which are cut during the application of the clamp members. The legs of the clamp are formed as arcs of a curve with a long radius to provide minimum friction and erosion of the conveyor tube. |
