Abstract

The present invention is an electrochemical machining tool equipped with a tool body that comprises: an electrode that extends along an axial line and inside which a flow channel through which an electrolytic solution flows towards the tip end is formed; an insulating layer covering the outer circumferential surface of the electrode so as to expose the tip end face of the electrode; and a flow channel-partitioning part for partitioning the flow channel into a first flow channel containing the axial line and a second flow channel positioned on the outer circumferential side of the first flow channel. The electrochemical machining tool has a configuration in which a fluid outflow section for directing electrolytic solution, which is flowing through the second flow channel, outward in the radial direction of the tool body is formed on a portion of the circumference of the tool body.
