A circular one (with a small diameter) would put a lot of tension on the sides of the strap, squashing and potentially tearing it. The flat bar of the triangle means it's (generally) evenly spread across the section of the strap. So if you can only find a circular replacement, make sure its not too small (in both wire diameter and ring diameter), and watch for fraying of the strap itself. | |
