Applied Magnets ® 2" X 1" x 1" Super Strong Rare Earth Neodymium Block Magnet: Lift Magnets: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific
BINGO - This has worked well for me too. I put 4 rare earth magnets about 1/2" from my rear aluminum Travel Trac roller drum and presto-More resistance than I can handle!
