A conveyor belt connector and method includes a plurality of connecting elements mounted on opposite ends of an associated conveyor belt or the like. A plurality of connector fastening elements are received through the connecting elements and the conveyor belt to mount the connecting elements on the conveyor belt. At least one reinforcing strap is provided, and is closely received in a corner recess formed in one of the faces of the conveyor belt. The reinforcing strap extends longitudinally along the conveyor belt, and has one end thereof attached to the conveyor belt by at least one of the connector fastening elements. A strap fastener connects the opposite end of the reinforcing strap to the conveyor belt, whereby the reinforcing strap relieves stress at the opposite sides of the belt connector to provide greater strength and durability.
