    Abstract: A valve has a body having an inlet, an outlet, and chamber. The inlet is in fluid communication with the chamber and the chamber is in fluid communication with the outlet. The valve has a stem designed to be received in the chamber. The valve stem has a valve surface. A corrosion-resistant or nonreactive sleeve is inserted into the inlet. The sleeve has a first end and a second end opposite the first end and a bore that extends from the first end to the second end. When the sleeve is inserted into the inlet, the second end extends into the chamber and is configured to be deformed within the chamber to secure the sleeve in the inlet.
