The brushed part is on the pump motor, not the pump head which screws onto the motor. If you look at the back end of the motor along the side, there are two little black caps (one on either side) and the brushes reside below those caps. Comparatively, if you look at the pump shown above, there are no black caps on either side towards the rear of the motor because that unit is brushless.
