Each fin extends radially outward from the body and each fin extends circumferentially about the body. The first plurality of fins includes a first fin and a second fin axially adjacent the first fin. The second fin is axially positioned between the first fin and the trailing end. The first fin and the second fin are configured to contact each other in the casing. The second fin is configured to bias the first fin radially outward and axially forward toward the leading end.
