wood shrunk metal bands loose.

On my 2 floatunes there is a narrow metal band.
I have never encountered these on a conga and I wonder what their fuction is.
There conga's are almost 30 years old so the wood has shrunk a bit and the bands are loose.
I removed the one on the quinto because It vibrated when I played it.
Will not having these band have some negative impact ?
Could I replace them with maybe 2 connected long tie straps ?
