Moderate wrist pain after wrist and reverse wrist curls (self.fitness)

I go relatively heavy on them (fail on 6-8 reps) because my grip strength affects my bench press, however i have started to feel some moderate pain on my left wrist (joint), it happens when i try to squeeze something. Is this normal? Also are there any other exercises that possibly don’t use the wrist joint as much?

You can't just jump into hyper focused workouts like that...

The point is to isolate a specific part that doesn't get as much work in normal lifting.

Don't just jump in, do a couple weeks of easy sets so the weak parts can build up.
