A process control valve comprises a valve body having an inlet and an outlet and a plug. The plug selectively restricts fluid communication between the inlet and the outlet. The plug can have a plug body and a plurality of fins extending radially outward from the plug body between a first end of the plug and a second end of the plug. Each one of the plurality of fins can have a tapered section proximate the second end of the plug. The tapered section can taper radially inward toward the second end of the plug.
