Abstract

An electrochemical machining tool includes a tool main body which includes an electrode having a tubular shape extending along an axis and formed of a conductive material having flexibility, the electrode through which an electrolyte flows toward a distal end side, and an insulating layer coated on an outer circumferential surface of the electrode so as to expose a distal end surface of the electrode. In the electrochemical machining tool, a hole part serving as a fluid discharge part configured to discharge the electrolyte flowing through inside of the electrode toward the outside in the radial direction of the tool main body is formed at a portion of a position in the circumferential direction of the tool main body.
