UF-Curl EZ Bar – Optimise your arm training with comfort and efficiency
Whether you are a beginner or an advanced lifter, the UF-Curl EZ bar is an essential for your arm training sessions. Its ergonomic design allows better muscle engagement without joint pain, while guaranteeing a comfortable, secure grip.
Thanks to its olympic sleeves compatible with standard plates and its high-quality bearings, this bar guarantees optimal smoothness and better load distribution. With a tensile strength of 130,000 PSI, it can take up to 300 kg, which makes it a reliable option for beginners and experienced athletes alike.
Why choose the UF-Curl EZ Bar?
The EZ curl bar allows effective arm work, reducing joint stress and optimising muscle contraction. Unlike a classic straight bar, it encourages a more natural wrist position, limiting pain and increasing lifting power.
Its Black Phosphate finish ensures increased durability, while its medium knurling offers an excellent, slip-free grip. Suited to strength, hypertrophy and functional training, it is perfect for gym or home gym use.
Why choose the Ajax over an entry-level EZ bar
Many entry-level EZ bars have no rotation and no real knurling, and are made with low-grade steel and a low-end finish. The UF-Curl Ajax follows the standards of a strength bar.
- Rotation. On an entry-level bar, the sleeve is fixed and the load twists your wrist on every curl. Here, the sleeves spin on bearings and the movement stays smooth.
- Knurling. A smooth or poorly knurled handle slips as soon as your hands sweat. The Ø 28 mm grip matches the diameter of Olympic bars, with knurling similar to a high-end bar for a solid grip without excessive aggressiveness that would tear your hands.
- Steel. Low-grade steel eventually bends under load. The Ajax steel is rated at 130,000 PSI and supports 300 kg.
- Finish. A low-end finish chips and ruins the knurling. The Ajax finish resists wear and preserves grip over time.
Compatible collars. To lock your plates on the 50 mm sleeves, use our 50 mm clamping collars or our 50 mm aluminium collars.
