A conveyor belt is made from rows of plastic conveyor belt modules (A, B, C, D) having interfitting end members (14, 16) in adjacent rows connected by a lateral pivot rods (10) extending through aligned holes (44, 45) in the end members. To retain the pivot rods in place an outermost end member (30) of each module is provided with an aperture (46) intersecting its pivot rod hole (42) at a location adjacent one end of the pivot rod. A rotary cylindrical stop member (32) is fitted in the aperture to block the end of the pivot rod. The stop member has a lateral through-bore (58) which can be aligned with the pivot rod hole when the stop member is rotated in the aperture to a release position so that the pivot rod can be removed through the stop member.
