An endless belt conveyor for heavy materials handling is provided in which shock forces generated by the loading of heavy objects onto the conveyor are absorbed in the vertical, longitudinal and lateral directions with respect to the conveyor by resilient suspension means such as a plurality of rubber shear spring blocks which are associated with the support structure for the track upon which the conveyor belt moves. The belt is comprised of slat links having a central transverse reinforcing beam and slat link covers surrounding the transverse reinforcing beam which converge to either side of the beam at a point intermediate the vertical distance between the top and bottom portions of the beam. Material loaded on top of the conveyor slat links contacts the higher portion of the slat link at the portion of the slat link where the beam is located, the beam acting to distribute the shock from the material loaded thereon along its length and to transmit such shock loadings to the conveyor support structure which absorbs the shock.
