Rank #9 in Best EZ Curl Bar 2026: 10 Ranked, and Why the Ratings Conflict
Northdeer 95cm Threaded EZ Curl Bar, 130kg
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Northdeer EZ Curl Bar is a chromed steel curl bar weighing 4.6 kg on its own, with a knurled 28 mm grip and an M24 x 1.5mm thread — which means it screws into Northdeer's own dumbbells rather than taking standard 1-inch or 2-inch plates. It sits at number 9 in this guide at £42.99, with 4.8 out of 5 from 17 ratings.
Where it stands apart from most of the bars here is the load rating. The bullet says "WEIGHT CAPACITY : 130kg" and the specification table says "Weight Capacity Maximum: 130 Kilograms". Those two agree, so 130 kg is the only load figure on the page and nothing on it contradicts that number. The length is a different story. The product name says 93cm, the bullet says 95cm including thread length, the dimensions field reads 95L x 2.8W centimetres, and the specification table's "Sleeve Length" reads 93 Centimetres — the same figure as the product name, and not something a sleeve can be on a bar whose total length is given as 95 cm. Everything below comes from the Northdeer Amazon listing, not from any testing of our own.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Fully compatible with my Northdeer v2 weights, this high quality EZ curl bar extends the exercises I can do in my home gym setup. It is very strong, comfortable and the milling ensures that no slipping occurs.”
Verified purchase“A really good product for a bar bell, to be used in conjunction with Nord Deer bar bells, which, of course, have to be purchased separately. The feel is great and much easier and comfortable than using a normal bar bell or fitting two dumb bells together. Highly recommended at a cost below £50.”

Questions people ask
What is the maximum weight the Northdeer EZ curl bar can take?
The bullet says 130kg and the specification table says 130 Kilograms, so 130 kg is the only load figure on the page and the two sources agree with each other.
How long is the Northdeer EZ curl bar?
The product name says 93cm and the bullet says 95cm including thread length. The item dimensions field reads 95L x 2.8W centimetres, while the specification table lists a sleeve length of 93 Centimetres — the same number as the name, which does not work as a sleeve on a 95 cm bar.
Will it fit weights I already own?
The bullet gives a thread size of M24 x 1.5mm and says it is compatible with all Northdeer dumbbells. Nothing in the listing claims compatibility with other brands or with 1-inch or 2-inch plates, and one reviewer notes the Northdeer bars have to be purchased separately.
What does the bar weigh on its own?
The item weight field lists 4.6 kg. The 130 kg capacity is given separately from that.
What is the grip like?
The grip type is listed as knurled and the size as 28 millimeters, which matches the 2.8 cm width in the item dimensions. One reviewer describes the milling as ensuring no slipping occurs.
How many ratings does it have?
The page shows 4.8 out of 5 from 17 ratings, broken down as 86% five-star and 14% four-star with nothing below four stars. 86% of 17 does not come to a whole number of ratings, so the 4.8 is the figure to go on.
