French term or phrase: boucle à came
Scuba diving equipment

La fixation de la bouée sur la bouteille se fait grâce à une sangle munie d'une +++boucle à came+++ qui assure le blocage en position après réglage.

Connaissez vous comment on appelle ça en anglais ?
Merci d'avance !

Explanation:
Found this in the volleyball context but it's probably the same term for scuba diving. See p 10 of the web ref.

Good luck!
