Buckle Tongues and Keepers can be used on any type of buckle, although not all buckles require them to function in a useful manner. Center-bar buckles rely on friction to stay in place, and are simpler to use without tongues, but you certainly can add tongues (and keepers) for them.
Silver or gold color pre-made buckle tongues allow you to add a tongue to any standard buckle, or convert jump rings into buckles. Made of soft metal that's easy to trim to just the right length.
