Shell Sterak Grease 1 is a lithium base grease specially blended for use in steering boxes in all types of vehicles. It has excellent low temperature properties ......It is an NLGI 1 consistency grease, with enhanced anti-wear and anti-corrosion properties.

This is from:
https://solutions.shell.com/in/produ...se_1__901L1263PACK SIZES
Available pack sizes - Drum 180 kg O/H RYTop (1)
So that's it - if they don' sell it sensible sizes I won't be using Shell Sterak.

Will this do instead ?

Search - From one of the links in this search, NLGI stands for
National Lubricating Grease Institute. The number that comes after the letters NLGI (e.g. NLGI 1 or NLGI 2) denotes the consistency of the grease - in this case 1 is thinner than 2.
Apart from that, everything else on the subject of grease is as clear as mud!
