A filter device for filtration of gaseous fluids, the filter device comprising:
- a multi-part housing comprising a first housing part and a second housing part connected to one another in a mounted state of said multi-part housing;
- a filter element insertable into said multi-part housing;
- a connecting device penetrating said filter element and providing a connection between said first and second housing parts;
- wherein said connecting device comprises at least one housing projection monolithically formed on said first housing part;
- wherein said connecting device further comprises a damping element arranged intermediately between and contacting against said at least one housing projection and said second housing part;
