The pneumatic tool has an end cap configured to receive a connector for connecting the pneumatic tool to a source of compressed gas. A retrofit connector is adapted to be received by the end cap of the pneumatic tool in place of the connector. A filter is connected to the retrofit connector independent of the end cap, and configured to filter the compressed gas received from the source. The connector has a first mechanical connection, and a second mechanical connection configured to mate with a third mechanical connection disposed on the end cap. The filter includes a fourth mechanical connection configured to mate with the first mechanical connection of the connector.
